Medium to dark green summer cabbage. Small heads, suitable for use as a baby cabbage.
WHERE TO SOW
Sow the seed thinly in a well prepared seed bed in shallow drills 2cm (3/4") deep. Keep well watered,
WHAT TO DO NEXT
Thin the seedlings as they appear to 5cm (2") apart. When the seedlings are about 10-15cm (4-6") tall, transplant to the growing site 35cm (15") apart. Set the young plants 2cm (1") deeper than they were in teh seed bed.
HANDY TIP
As soon as large enough to handle, prick off the seedlings into trays or pots 5cm apart. Gradually harden off before planting out in late May, 20-30cm apart. Thin outdoor seedlings to the same spacings.
