Cabbage - Chinese
(Chi-Hi-Li) (Early) |
Cabbage is easy
to grow, and an excellent source of vitamin C. An 84 g serving
of cabbage has 2 g of dietary fiber. For best results, plant
cabbage in rich humas and fertile loam. This heavy feeder does
best in conditions favouring rapid growth, with adequate moisture
during the entire growing period. Approximately 200 seeds per
gram.
Hints:
Transplant to garden when seedlings are 4 to 6 weeks. Early
varieties should be 45 cm apart, late varieties 60 cm apart.
Early varieties may split if to much moisture is applied
after a dry spell.
Chinese
- (Chi-Hi-Li) (Early) - 75 days from transplant. Early,
sure-heading variety. The heads are oblong, 7-10 cm (3-4)
thick and 45-50 cm (17-19) tall, tapering at the top. This
vigorous cabbage has a well blanched heart with bright green
outer leaves. Very tender, excellent quality with a celery like
spicy taste. |
