Waltham 29 is an open-pollinated broccoli that forms stocky 20-inch plants with dark blue-green mid-sized heads, followed by a large flush of side shoots after the central head is cut.
Sow 1/4 inch deep. Sprouts in 3-10 days in 65-85°F soil. Start indoors 4-6 weeks before last frost, transplant 12-18 inches apart a week or two before frost, or direct sow in midsummer for fall crops and pick heads while tight.
