Planting & Care
Sow Conehead Cabbage seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before the last frost, or directly in the garden in early spring or late summer for a fall crop. Plant seeds about ¼ inch deep in seed-starting mix or well-prepared garden soil. Keep the soil evenly moist and maintain a temperature of 65–75°F for best germination. Once seedlings have two sets of true leaves, thin or transplant to 18–24 inches apart.
Cabbage requires consistent moisture and regular feeding for optimal head formation. Mulch around plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Watch for common pests like cabbage worms and aphids, and use row covers or organic controls as needed. Harvest when heads are firm and fully formed, typically before they split.
