I would like to collect seed from some Open-pollinate and Heirloom
varieties. I've read that Broccoli, Brussels Sprouts, Cabbage, and
Cauliflower will cross-pollinate with each other.
Will they cross even if some are hybrids ?
Can I grow them at different times in the same year and have them not
cross ? As their ''fruit'' is the flower, can that be done ?
Sincerely,
