Planting & Care

Sow Green Gems Brussels Sprout seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost, or direct sow outdoors in early spring once soil can be worked. Plant seeds 1/4 to 1/2 inch deep and keep the seedbed consistently moist until germination, which typically occurs in 7-14 days. Thin or transplant seedlings to 18-24 inches apart to allow room for stalk development.

Brussels sprouts perform best in full sun with regular watering and a layer of mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Fertilize lightly at planting and again mid-season. As sprouts begin to form along the stalk, remove lower leaves to encourage 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.
