Care Instructions for Sowing and Planting Cauliflower in India
Climate: Cauliflower thrives in a cool climate. Ideal temperatures range from 15°C to 20°C. Avoid planting during the peak summer heat.
Soil Preparation: Use well-drained, fertile soil rich in organic matter.
Sowing Seeds:
Timing: In India, the best time to sow cauliflower seeds is from mid-July to late October.
Depth:Sow seeds 0.5 cm deep.
Spacing: Maintain a distance of 45-60 cm between rows and 30-45 cm between plants.
Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water regularly, especially during dry periods.
Sunlight: Cauliflower plants require full sun, at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily.
Fertilization: Use a balanced fertilizer rich in nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. Incorporate organic compost or well-rotted manure into the soil before planting.
Mulching: Mulch around the plants to retain soil moisture and suppress weeds.
Pest and Disease Control: Monitor for common pests like aphids, cabbage worms, and flea beetles. Use organic pest control methods or appropriate pesticides as needed.
Harvesting: Cauliflower heads are ready for harvest when they are firm and compact, typically 70-120 days after sowing, depending on the variety. Cut the head along with a few surrounding leaves to protect it during handling.
