Cabbage (Spring) Advantage F1 Hybrid Seeds
An excellent new variety suitable for providing both spring cabbage and summer cabbage depending on when you sow it. Sow outdoors in a well prepared seed bed in spring for late summer cabbages or summer for spring cabbages. Sow thinly 12mm deep in rows 23cm apart.If the soil is dry, water well and allow to drain before sowing. Transplant at the 5-6 leaf stage allowing a minimum of 25×38cm (10×15”) between plants. The soil should be firm and contain plenty of well rotted compost, preferably from a previous crop, and should also be well limed. Just before planting, rake in 3oz/sq yd of a balanced fertiliser. Hoe to remove weeds and break up the soil occasionally and water if the weather is dry. Spring sowings mature in late summer and a summer sowing in early spring as ’spring greens’, or later as mature cabbages.
