Description
This variety of cabbage has an excellent internal structure which can be made into the tastiest white coleslaw ever, or can be shredded raw into winter salads. Cabbage attraction has a vigorous plant habit so can be grown in all soil types. The good resistance to early frost damage allows for an extended cutting season into early winter.
Sow seed thinly, 12mm deep in a seed tray of proprietary seed compost and lightly cover with a sprinkling of vermiculite. Place tray in a propagator at 20-25C until after germination which usually takes 4-7 days. Transplant seedlings into 7.5cm pots and grow on until plants have 2-3 true leaves. Alternatively seed can be sown thinly in a well-prepared seedbed, 12mm deep in drills 23cm apart. Transplant into vegetable plot approximately 5-6 weeks after sowing at 60 x 50cm spacing for larger heads up to 3kg or at 50 x 30cm for 1 kg heads.
