Cabbage is one of two plants every South Florida Gardener should be growing.
Golden Acres variety. Three cabbages to a 7-gallon pot on drip
irrigation. Fertilized with composted rabbit manure in the soil mix plus
10-10-10 slow release monthly. Organic Control Bt Bacillus Thuringiensis sprayed as needed when caterpillars arrived.
Soon to be dinner.
Quarter for scale.
I cut the head off leaving some of the core on the plant. Each circled bud will grow a new cabbage head!
Beautiful if I do say so myself.
Save your cores for soup! Either to make a vegetable broth base or as an ingredient.
There is still time to plant cabbage and harvest before it gets hot.
