Description
Brussels Sprouts (Long Island Improved) Ferry Morse is a traditional cool-season vegetable that develops multiple small, compact sprouts along a tall central stem. Each sprout is tightly packed and rich in vitamins, minerals, and dietary fibre, making it a highly nutritious addition to home-cooked meals.
The plant grows upright and produces sprouts gradually from the lower stem upward, allowing for extended harvesting over time. For Nigerian growers, this variety is best suited for cooler months when temperatures support proper sprout formation and better crop quality.
Best Time to Plant (Nigeria)
Plant during the dry season (November–February) when cooler temperatures help produce firm, well-formed sprouts.
Where to Grow
Best grown outdoors in garden beds or large containers with deep, fertile soil.
Light
Requires full sun and at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily for strong growth.
How to Grow
Start seeds in a nursery tray filled with rich, well-drained soil. Transplant seedlings after 3–4 weeks when they are strong enough to handle outdoor conditions. Water consistently to keep the soil evenly moist, but avoid waterlogging. Ensure proper spacing between plants to allow airflow and healthy sprout development. Harvest sprouts gradually from the bottom of the stem upward as they mature.
Recommended Pot
Use large deep pots with proper drainage to support strong root growth and upright plant development.
