Brussels Sprouts Harvest Program
Extend Your Brussels Sprouts Harvest
Set out several Brussels sprouts varieties with different days to maturity on the same date, then harvest them one after another. Faster varieties tend to be less cold-hardy, while slower ones are hardier, so from one spring planting each variety comes in during its own part of the season. Where the season is long, growers can usually fit in more of the slower, longer-maturing varieties.
