Product details
How
Sow into trays of Yates® Black Magic® Seed Raising Mix. Firm down and keep moist. Transplant seedlings when about 7cm high.
Care
Choose a sunny, well-drained position where cabbages, cauliflowers have not grown for 2 years. Mix Yates® Thrive® Natural Blood & Bone into the soil before planting. Apply Yates® Thrive® All Purpose Soluble Fertiliser regularly for best growth. Protect from snails and slugs. Control leaf-eating caterpillars with Yates® Success® Ultra.
Hint
As the curd develops, fold leaves over the top to prevent yellowing.
