Garden Progressions: Broccoli

From the smallest sprout:
 
Planted out seedlings.
 
Growing fast


Filling out

 
Heading up


Almost ready to harvest.
 
One good sized head for the first broccoli harvest.
This is the first time I've ever grown broccoli and it formed beautiful heads like this.  Every other year it always tried to bolt and most of the time I raced to harvest the side shoots before they went to flower.  Maybe it's all the rain we have been getting this summer as opposed to the hot, dry weather I tried to grow in the previous years.
