A high performing hybrid bred for winter harvest, Snowbowl produces consistent heavy, dense crowns with fine ivory coloured curd. Delightful buttery flavour and creamy texture make it a winner for wintery comfort meals. Upright facing wrapper leaves and a compact growth habit allow close plant spacing.
Sow into trays of Yates® Black Magic® Seed Raising Mix. Firm down and keep moist. Transplant seedlings when about 7cm high.
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.
As the curd develops, fold leaves over the top to prevent yellowing.
Store in a cool dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children and pets.
