Sow seeds ¼ inch deep in seed-starting mix or well-prepared garden soil. Keep soil moist but not waterlogged. Germination typically occurs in 7-14 days at 65-75°F (18-24°C).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTransplant seedlings when they have 3-4 true leaves, spacing them 18-24 inches apart. Water regularly, especially during dry spells, and mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds. January King benefits from a side dressing of compost or balanced fertilizer mid-season. Protect from cabbage worms with row covers if needed. Harvest heads when firm and fully formed, typically after a light frost for best flavor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e500 January King Cabbage seeds (Brassica oleracea).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67795560759606,"sku":"FOLIA2-527","price":27.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.7127804276_4cts.jpg?v=1792671617","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/january-king-cabbage-seeds-500-heirloom-winter-savoy-cabbage-for-planting","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
