Two varieties of cabbage were grown at the Horticulture Research Center (HRC) outside of Fort Collins, Colorado during the 2004 growing season. We grew one spring crop which was started in the greenhouse on March 29th. Seeds were planted into 72-cell trays filled with Sunshine No. 3 brand soil mix and topped with vermiculite to aid in keeping the seeds moist. Seedlings were fertilized once a week with fish emulsion fertilizer fed through an injector. They were transplanted at the HRC on May 18th into beds with 30″ centers, in a single row at 12″ spacing with one line of drip tape. Flea beetles damaged many of the heads, especially those of the green Gonzales cabbage. Below are photos, yield data, and production notes for each of the varieties.<\/p>\n

Like all Brassicaceae crops, cabbage is transplanted in this region to avoid losses caused by flea beetle. Cabbage seems to draw less and less market attention, but some of the smaller, specialty varieties stand out. Aphids and caterpillars must be kept in check to produce clean heads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
