Sowing Summer Cabbage

Now is the time to sow summer cabbage seeds.

I am planting these into seed trays, although you could equally plant directly into the ground as long as they are protected from frost.

I used one of these beautiful cedar wood seed trays I was kindly given for Christmas.

Armed with my John Innes No.1 compost, a dibber and not forgetting my Cabbage Primo seeds, I was set to go.

I planted the seeds around 1cm deep, covered with a light sprinkling of compost, watered and popped them in the greenhouse. Don’t forget a label.

You can almost taste the coleslaw already. Just need the carrots and maybe some onions.
