This paper presents the results of examination of the influence of planting dates (10th of April, 10th of May, 10th of June, 10th of July) on chemical composition (dry matter contents, ash, cellulose, vitamin C and total sugar content) and yield of Brussels sprouts. The three-year experiment shows that Brussels sprouts can be successfully cultivated in agroecological conditions of southern region of Montenegro (Zeta Plain). Earlier planting (April-May) provides higher yield and better quality of sprouts when compared to later planting dates (June-July). The planting date had a significant effect on contents of dry matter, sugar and vitamin C, while no correlation between planting date and variety was recorded for other parameters of chemical contents.
