How do you know when broccoli is ready to be harvested?
Broccoli is ready to be harvested when the central head is compact, deep green and fully developed. When yellow flowers begin to bloom, then the broccoli is over-mature. Harvest in the early morning with a sharp knife, cutting the head with 5-6 inches of stem. Frequent harvesting makes the plant give smaller side shoots, which prolongs the harvesting season.
