Cabbage 'Red Express' FAQ

When should I plant cabbage?

Start seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before transplanting. Set out 2–4 weeks before last frost for spring, or 10–12 weeks before first fall frost for fall. Warm regions (zones 8–10): fall is best.

Why did my cabbage head split?

Splitting follows heavy watering or rain after a dry spell on mature heads; harvest promptly once heads are firm.

Can I grow cabbage in a container?

Compact varieties can grow in a 5-gallon pot, one plant per pot.
