Product Description

The Red Cabbage is a cabbage variety known for its compact head and dark purple leaves with red hues. The heads are dense and round, reaching a diameter of about 6-8 inches. The internal flesh is crisp and juicy, with a sweet and slightly peppery flavor, which becomes milder after light cooking. Red Cabbage is rich in antioxidants, vitamins C and K, making it a healthy choice for salads, stews, and traditional red sauerkraut. It is ideal for fall and winter cultivation, but can also be planted in spring.

Cultivation

• Soil type: Prefers well-drained soil rich in organic matter, with a pH between 6.0 and 7.5.

• Watering frequency: Keep soil consistently moist, avoiding waterlogging that can cause root rot.

• Light exposure: Requires full sun but tolerates partial shade, especially in warmer regions.

• Temperature requirements: Best grown in cooler temperatures, between 60-70°F (15-21°C), ideal for fall and winter harvests.

• Fertilization: Use a balanced fertilizer at planting and during growth to promote head development.

• Pruning: Not necessary, but thinning seedlings to 12-16 inches apart ensures optimal head growth.

• Common pests: Watch out for cabbage worms, aphids, and slugs; use row covers or organic treatments to protect plants.
