  • winter cabbage: harvest in June?

    I just got my T&M Tundra F1 cabbage out to sow (having filed it in the July section of my organiser) and the instructions say

    "a very hardy winter cabbage ... harvest June to October"

    So does it grow amazingly fast or very very slowly

      The same seeds on Marshalls website say "Sown in May it crops from November to late April." which makes much more sense!

        I've noticed some bizarre info on seed packets recently, specially regarding sowing and harvesting times

          I had 500 or so last year - cropped from November through to February but if I had had more in, they would have stood quite happily in all the snow - excellent winter hardiness and good solid heads - I put 1000 in this year !

            These were free with a magazine, so I reckon T&M realised their mistake. (they've printed the wrong growing instructions on the pack)

              I grew tundra last year but was not over impressed with it. Mine got a lot of chocolate spot on it although that didn't affect the eating quality or the yeild. They sat reasonably well through the winter and I used the last one some time in march. At the end of the day they were just another cabbage with no outstanding features.
