Thankee, I just find it's less fuss and muss and you get a better crop with fewer bugs to battle. Do try a pick a broccoli that gives you side shoots once the main head is cut. I harvest those a few at a time, blanch em, but em in a ziploc bag and I have broccoli available anytime. Those are super sweet because they are small and compact.
We had some good ones a few years ago that gave off the shoots, plus it wasn't a very hot summer which helped. Just couldn't get anything decent the last couple of years. I may have to go to another town to find plants.
