Posted - Apr 02 2010 : 03:49:50 AMMy neighbor brought over 3 cabbage plants yesterday. I'm in a 5a zone. Normally I don't put in my garden until Mother's Day weekend, but the hubby & I are just beginning to learn about early crops. Is cabbage one of them?
Posted - Apr 02 2010 : 07:47:15 AMCabbage plants can take a light frost, I am in the same growing zone as you are. I started my cabbage seeds last week and will put them out when they are a few inches tall and have some permanent leaves on them. I had a really good crop of cabbage last year. I use coffee grounds and crushed eggshells that I sprinkle around the plants to ward off slugs. It worked great last year. Homemade saurkraut, yummy!
