Cauliflower

Snowball Cauliflower Self Blanching-- An old white type, ivory head, with excellent taste. Start seeds indoors 4-6 weeks before transplanting outdoors. Place seeds 1/4" deep in a good potting mix. Seedlings need lots of light to prevent legginess. Transplant outdoors 12-18" apart. Young cauliflower plants are somewhat frost tolerant.  This self-balnching variety should self wrap its outer leaves over the developing head, protecting and blanching the head to a creamy white. After curds are well formed, cut just below the head to harvet.  65 days.  50 untreated seeds.
