roftl, what frost len? You live in Australia. It'd be quite a rare thing for
you in Sydney (?) eh.

We have had a few decent frosts our winter though this last month a shit
load of rain, just continues ****ing down day after day. I'd love a good
frost about now, means the rian will've buggered off. You let your broccoli
grow quite big I note. I put some in over summer & harvested the big first
heads. The broccoli has kept going nicely through autumn n winter and is
poking up loads of little heads that go very nice in stir frys. Not enough
time for them to get big.

g'day rob,

i live near brisbane queensland, and while we don't suffer frosts like
others even here in australia we do get them one reason why we like
living in sub-tropical east coast climates our biggest contender is
long hot dry summers, it was the black frost that did the most damage.

yes i let the first heads grow as big as they want to i pick them as
soon as the tops start feeling loose, i have harvested upo to 8 picks
from my broccolli, most second onward picks are no bigger than fist
size and anything smaller than that, i use it all the same way as the
first picks like eating broccolli in lots of ways. also always get to
share a lot of broccolli. the biggest one wa around 11"s across the
widest part.
