Once I have picked the cauliflower, do I need to remove the plant or will another cauli grow? Thanks.

Thank you for the replies, I don't think I explained myself very well. I grew beautiful big cauliflowers, I've picked them and the question is, now what do I do with the plant left behind - will another cauliflower grow from the stalk or do I pull the whole plant out? Thanks

Take plant out and compost. Leave for a while before replacing.
