It's time to plant out my sprouting/mini broccoli and Brussels sprouts--do I need to harden off the seedlings like I would with a tomato? One of these I planted from Burpee...
I've been watching the first cauliflower get bigger and decided that today was the day to cut it before it went too far. Variety is 'Amazing' and this one was 7 wide. It felt...
These evil little buggers are not the Cabbage Looper. She said it is horrifying how many there are, and when she went to pick the cabbage head tons fell out.
I cut my fall cabbage in late October. The bed is suboptimal for fall due to afternoon house shade, and the plants were put out late. We got six small cabbages that tasted...
I am looking for varieties of cauliflower which, at the stage when they are not yet planting flowers, are able to survive our winter under non-woven foil or in a foil tunnel...
I have never seen a cabbage flower although I've read descriptions of how a head splits and the flower stalk emerges. Hmmm, that might be what's going on in the garden with...
We've had a couple more inches of rain in the past several days so the open areas at the bottom of the garden are swamped again. It's a good thing they won't be needed until...
So how do you know when a cabbage is completely mature ? I already harvested one Charleston Wakefield that was probably 2 pounds. It was a bit on the small side, but the bugs...
My first year growing cabbages and I'm trying to stay ahead of any pests that might ruin my crop. We have a lot of bugs here and after such a mild winter it seems worse than...
I grew beautiful brussel sprouts last year in my high tunnel. The plants were beautiful but unfortunately the sprouts were hardly larger than marbles. What do I need to be...

Are they similar in needs and space?
what do you do with them once they are mature?
how big do I let them get?
how do I store them? or don't I?
recipes or cooking method?
I...
Didn't know where to post this but since I'm looking for red cabbage I guess this is a good place as any.
I want to try growing them as sprouts. If anyone here grows or eats...
I found a few crosses in the Michihili cabbage seeds I saved and started for basement eats this winter. Two I decided were most interesting I am hoping to get seed to grow...
I've never grown these before and so I was a bit surprised how flat they really are! The larger of the two is about 10-11 wide but only about 3-4 thick. These two and one...
I think we might be over the low-20's hump so I will take the tunnel off the carrot bed this afternoon. Rain is supposed to come in tonight just when the flooded lower areas...
I've never grown cabbage before, but suddenly got the urge and just ordered 4 types of seed from seedsnow when I was picking up a half-pound of Red Acre seed for...
We've had two cold mornings of 28 and 27 degrees. The carrots got more leaves dumped over them to cover. Brassicas are pretty hardy but just as an insurance policy, I laid...
