Planting & Care
Planting & Care
Soil & Water: Cabbage prefers rich, fertile soil with a pH of 6.0-7.5. Water heavily from planting to head formation, then water moderately to prevent splitting. Cabbage is a hardy crop, grown best in cool spring and fall temperatures.
Planting & Growing: Start indoors 8 weeks before last frost, or outdoors March through June. Fast growing or stressed cabbages tend to split and bolt; cutting into the root system will slow growth and prevent splitting. Provide transplants with cutworm shield collars.
Harvesting & Storage: Early types of cabbage grow and mature quickly and must be harvested promptly to avoid splitting. Heads store well in cool (32°F-40°F), moist locations for 5-6 months.

Transplanted my starts from indoors March 16, harvested my first cabbage May 16th. The inside is open and doesn’t have the leaves densely packed. I am used to green cabbage and this was a surprise to me. I made sauerkraut and had a few extra heads to store in the fridge. They lasted 4 months!
