Cauliflower can also be direct sown, spaced 18 to 24 inches apart in rows 24 to 36 inches apart, seeded 0.25 inch deep. For a reliable fall crop, sow in mid to late summer so heads mature in cool weather.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeep soil consistently moist and fertilize regularly, since cauliflower is a heavier feeder than many other cool-season crops. Purple and green varieties in this blend do not require blanching, but any white-headed plants will develop the whitest curds if their outer leaves are tied or folded over the head once it begins to form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHarvesting Heirloom Rainbow Blend Cauliflower\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHarvest heads once they reach full size but before the curds begin to separate or loosen, cutting the head away from the main stem with a sharp knife.
