Space transplants 18-24 inches apart with 2-3 feet between rows. As with all cauliflower varieties, these babies need a little space. Cauliflower, in general, likes quite a bit of water.

CULTURE: Cauliflower prefers a well-drained, fertile soil high in organic matter, a pH of 6.0–7.5 with consistent moisture throughout the growing season. Irrigate regularly for best results. Cauliflower does not do well in hot weather; the best success is with spring and fall crops.
