carino Member Joined: Mar 2007 Dallas/Ft Worth Texas	I now have 6 broccoli plants but have no idea when I should harvest them. The tops of the plant have some yellow small flowers. There are other clusters coming from the inside of the bottom leaves. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I live in North Texas. Thanks.
