The best time to plant Brussels sprouts is in early spring for a summer harvest or in late summer for a fall harvest. They thrive in cool weather, so planting them about 4-6 weeks before the last expected frost in spring or 85-100 days before the first expected frost in fall is ideal. Ensure the soil is well-drained and rich in nutrients for optimal growth.
Depending upon your hardiness zone, they can be grown in November but will most likely closer to havest time. Brussels sprouts are hardy to about 20 degrees and a frost or freeze will actually sweeten their flavor. Brussels sprouts can actually be left on their stalks in the fields under blankets off snow which is considered the best preservation method because they neither continue to grow or age.
One of the reasons so many people dislike Brussels sprouts is the method of cooking. In many cases, these vegetables are simply overcooked by boiling, causing them to become mushy and release an unpleasant odour, rather like rotten egg gas. It is better to steam, roast or stir fry them in order to bring out the best flavour. Apart from that, there is an actual specific gene present in a large number of people that make Brussels sprouts taste bitter to them.
Brussels sprouts, is a hardy, slow-growing, long-season vegetable belonging to the cabbage family. They improve in quality and grow best during cool or even lightly frosty weather. Summers are generally too warm for good harvests.
No. Bean sprouts are root/plant and people eat it all the time.
Brussels sprouts are scored before cooking to help them cook more evenly and quickly. The cuts allow heat to penetrate the tightly packed leaves, reducing cooking time and preventing them from becoming mushy. Additionally, scoring can enhance flavor absorption from marinades or seasonings. This technique also helps reduce bitterness by allowing steam to escape during cooking.
When a seed sprouts, this is called germination. At this time mitosis is rapidly taking place to make enough cells to pop that baby out of the soil and into the sun and rain.
i hav no idea. if u eat brussel sprouts then u r WEIRD! ---- Because it's healthy and some people (like, um, er, me) like the taste of sprouts. I grew up eating frozen brussel sprouts and couldn't stomach them my whole life until I met my husband. He grew up on fresh brussel sprouts that his mom steamed. The key is to not over cook them and add butter, salt and pepper. If they're too overcooked they get bitter and if they're not done enough their no fun to eat!
The best time to plant them is in the beginning of April, before the 10th.
i think the best time to plant them is around November to give them time to grow
