Health Benefits of Cauliflower

• High in Vitamin C: Supports immunity, skin health and iron absorption.
• Rich in Folate: Essential for cell growth and particularly important during pregnancy.
• Good for Digestion: High fibre content promotes healthy gut function and prevents constipation.
• Anti-Inflammatory: Contains sulforaphane and other compounds that help reduce inflammation in the body.

How to Grow Cauliflower at Home

Sow seeds 0.5 inch deep in a cocopeat-compost mix. Transplant seedlings to 12-15 inch pots after 3-4 weeks. Water every 2-3 days and ensure 6+ hours of direct sunlight. Once the curd begins to form, tie outer leaves over it to block sunlight and keep it white and firm. Ready to harvest in 70-90 days from transplanting.

When to Sow Cauliflower Seeds

Cauliflower is a cool-season crop that performs best in winter. Best sowing windows across India are September to November for a winter harvest. Avoid sowing in summer as high temperatures cause the curd to loosen and yellow quickly.
