We're starting them for you! We're excited to offer our Twister Cauliflower plugs. Twister Cauliflower is a hybrid with large, heavy heads and excellent wrapping. This variety gets it name from the leaves that twist around the cauliflower head to wrap and protect it. Heads are bright white and tightly packed due to the incredible internal wrapping that this variety has. Twister produces uniform harvests with very few defects. It produces a near-perfect head every time. This variety is widely-adapted and has been shown to perform well from southern California to the northeast U.S. Twister Cauliflower is a great variety for backyard gardeners and small-market farmers. It has also been shown to perform particularly well in heavier soils. Roast these or put them in the air fryer for a quick, delicious treat!
Cauliflower crowns should be harvested when they reach about 5-6″ in diameter. As crowns become larger, plant leaves are less able to wrap the crowns adequately, which can cause discoloration by the sun. Although cauliflower leaves are frost-tolerant, the crowns are not. If frost is imminent while crowns are developing, be sure to use some form of row cover to protect the crowns from frost.

Hoss will conduct a full assessment of plants before they are shipped to ensure healthy plants are shipped to you. We recommend transplanting your plugs the same day you receive them or the next day. It is the customer's responsibility to assess their own weather conditions and planting times prior to ordering, please do not order if it's too early. If plants, upon arrival, are found to be in questionable health, please email pictures to Customer Support at support@growhoss.com within 24 hours of receiving your order and we will promptly review your concerns and submission. If your plants are not watered or planted in a timely manner, they may not survive.
