Greenboy Hybrid Cabbage F1

Be sure to check out our Cabbage Growing Guide for more tips & tricks on successfully growing cabbage!

Greenboy cabbage is a mid-season hybrid variety; it has a wide adaptability across most USDA Hardiness zones. Its medium head, very solid white interior, and overall quality make it the perfect variety for the home garden and fresh market grower. Greenboy is extremely heat and rain tolerant. Brassica oleracea. 80-85 days to maturity

Cabbage grows best in areas where weeds are kept to a minimum. Plant cabbage early in spring for a late spring/early summer harvest, or plant in late summer/early fall for a fall harvest. Greenboy cabbage is a heavy feeder and requires a considerable amount of nitrogen for larger heads. For best results, inject or soil drench with a balanced fertilizer at least once every two weeks. Greenboy may be direct-seeded or transplanted, although we suggest transplanting. Transplanting allows for more consistent plant spacing and prevents seedlings from competing with weeds in the early stages of the plant. We recommend starting transplants 4-5 weeks before the desired outdoor planting date. Greenboy

Cabbage transplants grow great in our heavy-duty seed starting trays, where they develop a solid root ball with roots that are trained to grow downward. Plants are ready to go in the ground when they can be easily pulled from the cells in the seed starting tray.
