Keep the soil consistently moist and well enriched with compost or organic material; cauliflower tastes most tender when it is able to grow quickly. Since the Snowball varieties of cauliflower are self-blanching, no tying is necessary. Harvesting Snowball Self Blanching Cauliflower: Gather the heads of cauliflower while the tiny buds still feel firm and tight. Mature heads usually reach a size from 6-12 inches. Cut them off at the base of the head, including a few leaves. For an early crop, start your seeds in peat pots to avoid disturbing the roots later. Plant the seeds 1/2" deep, 8-12 weeks before the last expected frost. After gradually exposing the seedlings to the weather for several hours each day, plant them about 2 weeks before the last expected spring frost; cauliflower grow best at temperatures from 57-68 degrees F (14-20 C). They should be spaced 15-18" apart. Cauliflower also grows exceptionally well when planted in midsummer for a fall crop. For companion planting benefits, plant cauliflower with celery; this repels the destructive white cabbage moth. Avoid planting cauliflower with tomatoes.
