A delicious vegetable for fall and winter use. Have a mild cabbage-like flavor but are more tender and tastier. Frost improves their flavor. In most areas grown for fall harvest but in mild winter areas can be planted later for winter and spring use. Good fresh or frozen.
When and Where to Plant: For early crop start seeds indoors in pots or flats 6-8 weeks before setting out. For later crop start seeds outdoors in a warm and sunny location after last frost. Sow fall crop 10-12 weeks before fall frost date. Loosen soil with a spade or fork, fertilize with vegetable food and water thoroughly. Firm soil over seed.
Care: Keep soil moist and feed every 4-6 weeks. As sprouts develop, remove lower leaves--this encourages heavier production.
Harvesting: Harvest while buds are still tight and before there is any yellow color.
