Plant seeds about 1\/4 inch deep in a sunny location with well-drained soil. Keep the soil evenly moist during germination, which typically takes 7-14 days. Once seedlings have two sets of true leaves, thin or transplant them to their final spacing. For a fall crop, start seeds in mid-summer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCabbage requires consistent moisture and benefits from a layer of mulch to retain soil moisture and suppress weeds. Fertilize with a balanced organic fertilizer according to package directions. Watch for common pests like cabbage worms and aphids, and use row covers or hand-pick as needed. Harvest heads when they are firm and reach the desired size, typically before they split.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e500 Earliana Cabbage Seeds (Brassica oleracea).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67795558334774,"sku":"FOLIA2-519","price":27.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.7127925814_bex9.jpg?v=1792671599","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/500-earliana-cabbage-seeds-brassica-oleracea-early-heirloom-variety-bulk-garden-vegetable-seeds","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
