I have half a dozen broccoli plants. The plants are getting fairly big
but I don't see any signs of head formation. When should I expect to see
the heads start to develop?

I'm in Massachusetts, the plants were transplanted from flats about a
month a go.


Did you fertilize them? Or top-dress them with compost yet?
You could try side-dressing with a high N fertilizer and see
if they'll do something...
