Alcosa F1 Cabbage
Hybrid 70 days. Early, small 2-4 lb. ruffled Savoy heads. Alcosa might just be the prettiest cabbage we’ve see. Outer leaves are medium bright green, creamy center, heads gain density instead of width as they grow. A sure bet for spring and early summer growing, this variety tolerates dense plantings. Mild winter areas can grow for fall and early winter. Leave stumps in ground to produce cute side-sprouting mini-heads. Planting Directions: Sow seeds indoors 4-6 weeks before last frost-soil temperature of 50°-95°, 85 ° optimum. Sow seeds ¼” deep with 3-4 per unit/inch thinning to 1 seedling. When seeds germinate move to a cooler, well lit area to produce sturdy transplants. Harden off seedlings 7 days prior to transplanting outdoors. Plant in well prepared soil enriched with a complete garden fertilizer or rich compost as cabbage is considered a heavy feeder. Transplant outdoors when soil temperature is 60-65°. Water heavily when plants are young changing to moderate after head
