Thanks for the info James, did not remember that broccoli could take as low
as 20 degrees if hardened off.
At my age I think I need to figure out a better system of filing info in my
brain. It is getting way to crowded in there :)))

Jeane, we were talking about broccoli seedlings, were we not? One does not
have to go by frost date for broccoli at any rate. If the seedlings are
hardened off, they will withstand 20 degrees or colder with no problem.
It's hard
freeze you have to look out for with broccoli. The last of the hard
freezes is
likely behind us.
