I'm going to grow cauliflower again this year. In the past, I've had success growing both the purple one and white ones with pinning the leaves. I don't remember any bug / moth problems at all. Nothing was treated.

I remember one of my plants was grown in a bucket on my pool deck; think intense sun and it produced a large head.

I think I started my seeds in early October and they would probably be fairly rootbound by the time they were planted out.

Also, on Broccoli I grow every year and start seeds around the same time and they for sure are rootbound by the time it is planted.

I will try my old seeds to get if they germinate and if not order the Amazing variety.
