Question:
When should I harvest broccoli?Answer:
Broccoli should be harvested when the head is fully developed, but before the flower buds begin to turn yellow and open. At harvest, the terminal head should be tight, blue-green, and approximately 6 to 7 inches in diameter. Most broccoli varieties will develop several side heads (about 1 to 3 inches across) in the axils of the leaves after the central head is harvested.
