Planting & Care
Start Dagan Brussels Sprouts seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before the last frost, or sow directly outdoors in early spring or midsummer for a fall harvest. Sow seeds about ¼ inch deep in seed-starting mix or well-prepared garden soil. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Germination typically occurs in 7–14 days at temperatures around 65–75°F. Once seedlings have 2–3 true leaves, transplant them to the garden, spacing them 18–24 inches apart in rows 24–36 inches apart.
Brussels sprouts require regular watering and benefit from a layer of mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Fertilize lightly when plants are about 4 weeks old. As the plants grow, you can remove lower leaves to encourage sprout development. Harvest sprouts from the bottom of the stalk upward when they are firm and about 1–1.5 inches in diameter. A light frost can improve flavor by converting starches to sugars.
