Wait until the sprouts are firm, green, and about 1 to 2 inches wide

Start harvesting from the bottom of the stalk upward

Twist or snap each sprout off at the base

Remove yellowing leaves as you harvest

Harvest lower sprouts first to allow upper sprouts to continue growing

Pick after a light frost for better flavor if possible

Cut the entire stalk at the base if you want to harvest all remaining sprouts at once

Store harvested sprouts in the refrigerator and use soon after picking
