Growing Broccoli in a Container

This fall/winter I am going to try to grow Broccoli in a container for the first time. I recently planted quite a bit of broccoli in the ground and 2 plants in containers. I plan to watch and see how much different the growth and production in the container is.

So far both plants in the containers are out growing and looking quite a bit healthier than those in the ground. The plants in the ground are being grown in my native soil (sand) with quite a bit of amendments (compost and peat). The plants growing in the container are growing in a potting mix of compost, peat and topsoil.

Here is a picture of one broccoli plant in a container:

Update: Here are a few more pictues
