CABBAGE 
One ounce of seed produces about 2500 plants 
The convenience of being able to 
go out into your own garden and pick 
a fresh, crisp, small Cabbage when 
you want it is reason enough for 
growing this crop. Cabbage, like 
beets, is a table vegetable of many 
uses, and also a salad vegetable of 
great value (cole-slaw). Home-grown 
Quality is something you can’t buy.
