    Excellent Germination and Production

    These started off slowly, but are really making good progress now. I put them out as almost strands to make sure to get them started in relatively cool weather, and fully expected them to fail. I’ve heard it’s difficult to grow broccoli from seed. Thee are thriving and I can’t wait to see how they finish!
