Catskill Brussels Sprout (Brassica oleracea var. gemmifera) is valued for:

  • Strong, compact plants that resist lodging
  • Large, firm sprouts that hold tightly along the stalk
  • Reliable performance in cool-weather growing conditions

Why Customers Love Catskill Brussels Sprouts:

How to Use / How to Grow:
Start seeds indoors 4–6 weeks before the last frost or direct sow outdoors once soil temperatures are cool and workable. Transplant seedlings into fertile, well-drained soil in full sun. Space plants adequately to support strong stalk development. Brussels sprouts prefer consistent moisture and benefit from cool temperatures as they mature. Plants tolerate light frosts and continue producing quality sprouts late into the season.

Harvest & Use:
Harvest sprouts from the bottom of the stalk upward once they are firm and well formed. For best flavor, allow plants to experience light frost before harvesting. Store fresh sprouts short term in refrigeration or blanch and freeze for longer storage.
