Cabbage grows best when daytime temperatures are under 80°F. High fertility, improper water conditions, and heat can cause loose, puffy heads. Spring planting should occur as soon as the soil can be worked, 3 to 5 weeks before the last frost, and fall planting should be done around June or July. Plants can grow 6 to 12" tall.
Requires fertile soil in a well-drained location in the garden. Apply mulch, grass clippings, or straw around the base of the plant.
Maintain consistent moisture to prevent heads from cracking. Water only the sides of the plant, avoiding wetting any part of it.
Use Slow Release (6 Month) Fertilizer when transplanting outdoors. Apply Miracle-Gro Liquid Fertilizer every two weeks.
Cut heads with a sharp knife at ground level.
