85 days from transplanted seedlings. It looks terrific, offers densely packed heads for great value, boasts an unrivalled disease resistance package, and has a mild flavor the whole family will love!
These burgundy heads range from 3 to 6 pounds and average about 8 inches in diameter. They’re heavier than they look, because the leaves are so tightly wrapped around the small central core. Excellent wrapper leaf protection minimizes your risk of sunscald and keeps the leaves beneath it crisp, sweet, and tender. There’s literally no better-looking red cabbage anywhere!
But a cabbage is only as good as its flavor, and Cairo has a mild, satisfying bite with no aftertaste. In taste tests, it was the consistent winner. And talk about plate appeal — these rich red leaves are eye-catching from a distance!!
Cabbage is a cool-season crop, sown in winter. Start indoors or direct-sow, spacing plants 2 feet apart for large heads, 1 to 1.5 feet apart for smaller heads. Before planting, prepare the soil well with fertilizer, and add a dose of ammonium nitrate about a month into the growth season. Harvest the heads when they are firm and brightly colored. Plants may form smaller side-heads after the main head is harvested.
