HEIRLOOM CABBAGE MAMMOTH RED ROCK - 500 FINEST SEEDS

HEIRLOOM CABBAGE

CABBAGE MAMMOTH RED ROCK HAS TIGHTLY PACKED 8 - 10 LBS HEADS, WHICH ARE SOLID RED THROUGH OUT. THIS CABBAGE HAS GOOD STORING QUALITIES AND IS A GREAT ALL ROUNDER, SUITED FOR PICKLING COOKING OR SLAW

SOWING INSTRUCTIONS:

SOW THINLY 1 CM (1/2 IN ) DEEP IN DRILLS CA  28 CM (9IN) APART. MAKE SURE THAT THERE IS PLENTY OF MANURE AND THE SOIL IS RAKED TO A FINE TILTH, TO GIVE YOUR CABBAGE THE BEST START POSSIBLE. SOWING TIME IS CA MARCH TO JUNE, BUT YOU CAN OBVIOUSLY START EARLIER UNDER GLASS OR IN A POLYTUNNEL

WHEN LARGE ENOUGH, THIN SEEDLINGS TO 30 - 38 CM (12 - 15 IN)  APART. IF YOU SOW THE CABBAGE AS SPRING GREENS THE SPACING CAN BE REDUCED 

PEST PREVENTION

A CARDBOARD COLLAR FOR EACH OF THE CABBAGES IS A GOOD AND CHEAP OPTION IN THE BATTLE AGAINST THE DREADED CABBAGE ROOT FLY.

I ALSO TEND TO USE A COUPLE OF SAUCERS FILLED WITH BEER AND SOME SEASHELLS  SCATTERED ON THE  CARDBOARD COLLARS TO KEEP THE SLUGS AT BAY.

THESE METHODS HAVE IN THE PAST HELPED MYSELF AND YOU CAN ALWAYS GIVE IT A TRY

THERE IS NO POSTAGE CHARGE FOR ADDITIONAL PACKETS OF SEEDS PURCHASED AT THE SAME TIME. BUY AS MANY PACKETS AS YOU LIKE AND PAY POSTAGE  ONLY ONCE.
