Las coles de Bruselas de Long Island son una variedad tradicional y popular de coles de Bruselas que son conocidas por sus abundantes rendimientos y sus sabrosos brotes:
Esta variedad semienana es compacta y produce entre 75 y 100 brotes de color verde oscuro de entre 2,5 y 5 cm de diámetro. Los brotes son dulces y se pueden recolectar durante un largo período de cosecha, de noviembre a enero.
Empiece a sembrar las semillas en el interior 4 o 5 semanas antes de la última helada y, luego, trasplántelas al exterior una vez que haya pasado el riesgo de heladas. Plántelas a una profundidad de ½ pulgada y aclaréelas una vez que las plantas alcancen una altura de 6 pulgadas.

Good to know

Semi-dwarf, stocky plants resist wind damage and lodging better than taller commercial hybrid varieties
Outstanding cold hardiness—flavor improves significantly after several hard autumn frosts
High sprout production per plant, offering excellent freezing and long-term winter storage potential

Requires a long, 90+ day growing season to fully form tight sprouts before heavy winter freezes set in
Like all brassicas, vulnerable to early-season cabbage moths, flea beetles, and aphids, requiring floating row covers or monitoring
