πŸ₯¦ WHY DOES BROCCOLI β€œBOLT”? πŸ₯¦

Ever noticed your broccoli suddenly shooting upwards and flowering?
That’s called *bolting* 🌼

Bolting happens when the plant thinks its life cycle is ending β€” usually because of:
β˜€οΈ Hot weather
πŸ’§ Lack of water
πŸ₯Ά Temperature stress
⏰ Waiting too long to harvest

Instead of putting energy into growing a big tasty head, the plant quickly sends up flowers to produce seed.

πŸ‘‰ Once broccoli starts bolting:
β€’ The heads become loose
β€’ The flavour turns more bitter
β€’ The texture gets tougher

🌱 Top tips to prevent bolting:
βœ… Keep plants well watered
βœ… Harvest heads while tight and compact
βœ… Grow in cooler seasons where possible
βœ… Use shade/netting during heatwaves

The good news?
Bolted broccoli flowers are still edible β€” and bees love them too 🐝
