You should cover cauliflower or pin up the leaves over the head when the curds are still immature and have not yet formed a tight, compact head, typically about a week or two before harvest. Covering the curds helps protect them from sunburn, which can cause discoloration and affect flavor. Additionally, it can help maintain a more tender texture and prevent pests from damaging the developing heads. Use the outer leaves to shade the curds while ensuring they are still healthy and green.
