How to grow Broccoli 'Corvet'

  • Partial Sun

  • Medium

Corvet likes a position of partial sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Corvet is thought of as tender, so it is really important to ensure that the outside temperature is well above freezing before planting or moving outdoors. Corvet needs a loamy and sandy soil with a ph of 6.2 to 7.2 (weakly acidic soil to weakly alkaline soil).

Growing Corvet from seed

Look to ensure a distance 5.85 inches (15.0 cm) between seeds when sowing - bury at a depth of at least 0.51 inches (1.3 cm) deep. Soil temperature should be kept higher than 10°C / 50°F to ensure good germination.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Corvet about 42 days before your last frost date.

Transplanting Corvet

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Corvet is a tender plant.
