Growing and Caring for Brassica Plants

One of the reasons brassicas are so popular is that they are fairly easy-going once they get established. Give them decent soil, enough water, and a bit of space, and they'll usually get on with the job.

  • Plant into soil that has been improved with compost or well-rotted organic matter
  • Choose a bright, open spot where plants can grow without being crowded
  • Water regularly during dry weather, especially while plants are getting established
  • Keep an eye out for slugs and cabbage white butterflies during the growing season
  • Feed occasionally if growth starts to slow

Frequently Asked Questions

Brassicas are often called cruciferous vegetables. The family includes many well-known crops such as cabbage, kale, broccoli, cauliflower, and Brussels sprouts.
That depends on the variety, but many brassicas are planted from spring into early summer. Planting times are usually chosen to match the harvest season you're aiming for.
Yes, provided the container is large enough. Kale and some compact brassicas can do particularly well in pots with regular watering and feeding.
Most brassicas grow best in a sunny position. They will cope with a little shade, but stronger growth and better harvests usually come from brighter spots.
Some varieties are ready surprisingly quickly, while others take several months. Kale can often be picked over a long period, while Brussels sprouts are usually harvested later in the year.
Yes. Many gardeners start with brassicas because they are productive and relatively straightforward to grow. Starting with young plants also takes away some of the challenge of growing from seed.
Brassicas prefer fertile soil that holds moisture without staying wet. Adding compost before planting will usually give them a strong start and help support healthy growth.
