Cabbage Savoy Perfection Delicious savoyed leaves that are sweet, mild and crinkled in texture. Plants are hardy and easy to grow. When grown as a late cabbage, its flavor even improves after subject to light frost. Enjoy raw in coleslaw or as a low carb wrap. It can also be steamed, stir fried or preserved in sauerkraut. Approximately 90 days to maturity. Special Directions for Short Season Climates SOWING: Start indoors or in greenhouse in early spring. Cover seeds with 1/8 inch fine soil. Sow late crops in mid to late summer. THINNING & TRANSPLANTING: Transplant seedlings indoors after first pair of true leaves have developed. Space them 4 inches apart or pot them individually in 2 1/2 inch pots. Once plants are established, harden off and transplant outdoors after severe frost danger has passed. SPACING: Space rows 2 to 3 feet apart depending on space available. Space plants 18 to 24 inches apart in the rows. GERMINATION: 7 to 10 days at 70°F indoors. Keep soil moderately moist during germination. Ed's Special Advice Plant outdoors in a sunny location in well-drained soil where no members of the cabbage family were grown the year before. Water regularly and fertilize periodically throughout the growing season. Easy to grow, flavorful and nutritious.
