(Brassica oleracea) 70-75 days.       One of the best red cabbages available. Produces lovely, reddish-purple, globe shaped heads. The Red Acre Cabbage is great fresh, cooked, or in coleslaw, adds a wonderful touch to any meal. Very resistant to cabbage yellowing. Red Acre Cabbage is well suited for small gardens, as it stays more compact than many cabbage varieties. Stores very well, and will last a long time in the garden without splitting or bursting.

Planting Instructions for Red Acre Cabbage Seeds

Heirloom Red Acre Cabbages are a hardy, biennial, cool season crop, growing best where the summers are mild. Early maturing heirloom cabbage varieties are planted in the spring, and longer season heirloom varieties are usually planted in summer for a fall harvest. Start spring cabbage varieties indoors 6-8 weeks before last frost or direct seed in full sun. Plant seeds ¼-½” deep, 4-6″ apart, in rows 2-3′ apart. Red Acre Cabbage  germination usually occurs in 5-17 days in soil 55-75°F. Thin heirloom cabbage plants to or set out transplants 15-24″ apart. Harvest early cabbage varieties promptly to avoid bursting, later types will hold in the field longer. At harvest, keep 2-3 wrapper leaves to protect heirloom cabbage heads from bruising.
