Broccoli 'Santee F1'

Try to plant in a location that enjoys partial sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Santee F1 is thought of as tender, so remember to wait until your soil is warm and the night time temperature is well above freezing before moving outside. Ideally plant in loamy and sandy soil and try to keep the ph of your soil between the range of 6.2 and 7.2 as Santee F1 likes to be in weakly acidic soil to weakly alkaline soil.

Try to aim for a seed spacing of at least 5.85 inches (15.0 cm) and sow at a depth of around 0.51 inches (1.3 cm). Soil temperature should be kept higher than 10°C / 50°F to ensure good germination.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Santee F1 about 42 days before your last frost date.

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Santee F1 is a tender plant.
