Cabbage 'Castello'

Plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Castello is thought of as hardy, so Castello will tend to go dormant or grow slowly over the winter months. Castello tends to grow best in a soil ph of between 6.0 and 7.5 meaning it does best in weakly acidic soil - weakly alkaline soil.

Look to ensure a distance 3.12 inches (8.0 cm) between seeds when sowing - bury at a depth of at least 0.47 inches (1.2 cm) deep. Soil temperature should be kept higher than 4°C / 39°F to ensure good germination.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Castello about 45 days before your last frost date.

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Castello is a hardy plant.
