If your broccoil have 8 true leaves they should be in the ground and growing
by now. You want to get broccoli off to a fast start before the heat sets in
by late spring. I think the yellow leaves are due to lack of good sunlight.
Be careful with fish emulsion usually one feeding should be more than enough
to get seedlings off and growing. I would not fertilize anymore the salt
buildup will harm the plants. Just plant them in the garden and seed a second
batch of broccoli... Bob.

Hi, all, hope someone can help me.

I currently have growing indoors under lights about 38 trays of
seedlings. Half of them are cole crops. All the plants are about 4-6
wks old and have 4-8 true (adult) leaves. I started hardening off half
of them a few days ago for transplant into my garden next week (under
row covers).
