How to Grow Broccoli with Big Flower Heads

In the video below, Regine Norman of AsianGarden2Table explains her secrets to growing fantastic broccoli.




Regine's videos are extremely detailed and well-produced and her knowledge is astounding.

Here's a secret from Regine: start with quality seeds from a respected supplier (avoid seeds from your local Home Depot). On her website, she sells seeds for the "Green King" variety of Broccoli.

Broccoli has a minimum of pest problems and continues to produce flower heads after the main harvest. I'll never forget the first broccoli I ever grew. The flavor and texture was so much better than what I was used to from the store. Below is a photo of me with my first broccoli harvest in about 1981.
