Cabbage 'Red Flare'

Plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Red Flare is thought of as hardy, so this plant will survive close to or on freezing temperatures. Red Flare 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.

Try to aim for a seed spacing of at least 3.12 inches (8.0 cm) and sow at a depth of around 0.47 inches (1.2 cm). Soil temperature should be kept higher than 4°C / 39°F to ensure good germination.

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

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