My broccoli plants look good but never flowered. I didn't realize that I probably planted them the wrong time of year until I started doing research. Should I just pull them up?

what kind of temperatures are you having? How big are your plants. Did the broccoli head up yet? Do you have a picture?

It has been pushing 100 almost everyday for a while. I planted them from seed the last week of March and they are almost 2 ft. I will try to get a pic later today.

Hmm, since this is my first year growing broccoli I'm not sure what to say. 100 seems hot for these little guys. I know my broccoli starts to complain in the 90's. I harvested all of the central heads and have been working on all the side shoots for several weeks now. The temps are between 70 - 90. As it gets warmer it tries to flower on me. I guess it will be interesting to see what happens with your plants. You could always leave one just to see what happens. I know they take up alot of space. If you don't get heads on the broccoli you can always eat the leaves. Just watch out for cabbage worms.

Post a picture so we have a better idea.

Finally got a picture. You can see where the cabbage worms got to the leaves before I got them under control. Cucumbers on the left, squash to the right and now both of those have just taken off. And it is really hot!!! I really think I just need to pull the broccoli. It grows great, just no sign of producing. Any thoughts? Is it too hot for broccoli? GetAttachment

Hi
Your image link is calling for an action on another server-it's not going to work here on the forum. Can you upload the same pic from your computer? Or put your pic on a website with direct access?

Try this. Not sure if I did it correctly.
