Wetsel Seed™ Long Island Improved Brussel Sprouts Seed
1,000 Seeds
A delicious vegetable for fall and winter use. Have a mild cabbage-like flavor, but are more tender and tasty. Frost improves their flavor. In most areas grown for fall harvest but in mild-winter areas can be planted later for winter and spring use. Good fresh or frozen.
For early crop start seeds indoors in pots or flats 6-8 weeks before setting out. For later crop start seeds outdoors in a warm and sunny location after last frost. Sow fall crop 10-12 weeks before fall frost date. Loosen soil with a spade or fork, fertilize with vegetable food and water thoroughly. Firm soil over seed. Keep soil moist and feed every 4-6 weeks. As sprouts develop, remove lower leaves--this encourages heavier production. Harvest while buds are still tight and before there is any yellow color.
