Physiological Insights: Cauliflower growth is influenced by various parameters, characterized by three stages of development:

• Juvenile Stage: This stage begins with germination, producing only vegetative growth.
• Floral Induction Stage: Triggered by low temperatures, leading to head formation.
• Head Formation Stage: The plant shifts focus from leaf production to head formation influenced significantly by temperature.
