Thinning your garden

Question

When is it too late to thin your garden? We probably should have thinned our broccoli, cauliflower, and cabbage months ago. Can we still go ahead and thin them even though it’s the middle of August?

Answer 1

Yes, you can thin whenever it is needed. However, if the plants are somewhat large, take care in pulling them up so as not to cause damge to the roots of nearby plants you wish to keep.
