How long do cabbage take to show.
« on: May 02, 2013, 11:58 »
I have cabbage seeds put in on the 13th April and kale same day and cabbage put in on the 24th April, in total over a hundred seeds. Not one has showed it's face, am I just expecting them too quickly. This sunshine has put me in an impatient mood.  ::)

I module sow in an unheated greenhouse and I'd be disappointed in more than 7 days at this time of year.
Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?

Oh  :( maybe I'll try again, amazon seeds maybe I'll need the 1070 in the pack to get a cabbage at that rate. Thanks

They should come up pretty quickly for you -- were they a bit too deep maybe?

Best of luck with Round 2  :)

Hubby is well known for that so it is possible, our spuds several years ago were in a three foot plus trench lol honestly it was so funny all the old boys stood around thinking he was digging the channel tunnel.
