June 3, 2022Q.Will My Broccoli Actually Produce Anything Now?
I planted my purple sprouting broccoli in the Autumn. It has grown but I've still not seen any sign of actual broccoli. Is it too late now or do I just need to be patient.

Certified ExpertA.There are a few possible problems. Check each one of your growing conditions against the info in this article - soil, sun exposure, fertilizing, etc. https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/edible/vegetables/broccoli/how-to-grow-broccoli.htm
If all of these conditions are met, and there are definitely a few of them, then perhaps patience is in order. Also, if you've had any extreme temperature fluctuations lately - a heat wave or a cold spell, this could affect your broccoli's growth, as well.Was this answer useful?00

Certified ExpertA.Unfortunately, your photos did not come through. I am unable to see the damage. It sounds like it could either be wilting, or light deficiency, though.

August 11, 2022Q.Problem With Your Website Content
Hi! I am new to gardening and happen upon your website when looking up companion planting for broccoli. The article for broccoli companion planting states to not plant with cauliflower. When I went to the article on companion planting for cauliflower, it says broccoli is a good companion plant. So…..which one is correct? Can they be planted with each other or should they be separated? Thanks!

Certified ExpertA.Thank you for bringing this to our attention. I will get the editors to address the situation. For reference, though... It would seem that they are not directly enemies. They are closely related, and will not have much of an issue, but they will compete for space and nutrients. As long as you address those issues, then they should be able to grow in proximity.
