Broccoli Raab (Rapini)

Direct sow seed 1/4 in deep and thin to 4–6 in; rapini grows quickly and is best as a cool-season crop because heat intensifies bitterness and accelerates bolting. Side-dress with nitrogen once plants are established to encourage the leafy shoot growth that is the primary harvest. Harvest when flower buds are visible but before they open fully, cutting the top 6–8 in of the shoot with leaves included. Repeated cuts extend the harvest, as side shoots continue to develop after the main stem is removed. Спосіб посадки: Посів у відкритий ґрунт Відстань між рослинами: 4–6 дюймів Висота: 12–24 дюймів Дні до схожості: 4–7 Температура ґрунту для схожості: 4–24°C
