Golden Acre Cabbage Seeds
Golden Acre cabbages are often among the first cabbages to be harvested from the garden in the spring. At peak harvest time, early Golden Acre cabbage plants produce heads that range from 3-5 lbs.
These smooth cabbage heads are exceptionally firm, and a good choice for growth in smaller garden spaces. Early Golden Acre cabbages will also require rich soil. A combination of high quality finished compost and nitrogen rich soil amendments are usually recommended for those wishing to form large cabbage heads.
To start the cabbage seeds, sow into seed starting trays in early spring or late summer depending upon the preferred harvest window.
Spring cabbages will require enough time to mature before the heat of summer has arrived. Later plantings of cabbage may be made for harvest in the fall garden by starting indoors mid-summer and planting out when temperatures are compatible.
