Head cabbage really needs at least two feet between plants... the dark
green outter leaves become huge and those are what catch the sun to

holes first so you'll be ready to plant each in turn immediately, and
water each well. I plant head cabbge 2 1/2 feet apart and I get solid
heads the size of basketballs... always remember plants have roots,
they need room too. typically the root systam is larger than the above
ground plant.... plants need space if they are to fully develop.

ok, cool. Will wait for some cooler & wetter wheather. Perhaps
tomorrow.

Was wondering: Would you guys be interested in helping me fill up a
website with info on growing ingredients & cooking fresh food?
