Side-dress the plants with nitrogen fertilizer for enhanced growth. Once the white head reaches 2 to 3 inches in diameter, practice blanching by gently tying the outer leaves together with rubber bands, tape, or twine. This protects the head from the sun, resulting in a beautifully white appearance.<strong>:<\/strong> Expect readiness for harvest 7 to 12 days after the blanching process.
