Sow seeds 1\/4 inch deep in a seed-starting mix, keeping the soil moist but not waterlogged. Germination typically occurs in 7-14 days. Once seedlings have 2-3 true leaves, harden them off and transplant to the garden, spacing 18-24 inches apart.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrussels sprouts thrive in full sun and fertile, well-drained soil. Water regularly to maintain consistent moisture, especially during dry spells. Mulch around plants to conserve moisture and suppress weeds. Fertilize with a balanced vegetable fertilizer according to package instructions. Harvest sprouts from the bottom of the stalk upward when they are firm and about 1-1.5 inches in diameter. For best flavor, wait until after a light frost.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e500 Gustus Brussels Sprout Seeds\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67795557581110,"sku":"FOLIA2-514","price":27.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.7128302794_msjb.jpg?v=1792671592","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/gustus-brussels-sprout-seeds-500-hybrid-high-yield-seeds-for-planting","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
