This is the earliest or latest, take your pick, cauliflower I have ever harvested. 130 days from transplanting in early September, but it is now forming beautiful heads. Had this one for supper tonight. usual years I get a fall crop, but this is the first time I have harvested broccoli and caulilfower in the winter months. Added advantage, I don't even have to tie up the heads or fight the imported cabbage worms.

Looks good Farmer! Did you have to protect it against frost? I got mine in late and the frost got it before the heads developed.
