Leafy green and brassica seeds

Our range of brassica seeds and leafy green seeds will give a year-round harvest of nutritional greens. For something a little different, try white sprouting Broccoli ‘Burbank’, the striking Kale ‘Midnight Sun’, or our Cauliflower ‘Coloured Headed Mix’ that will give you white, golden, lime and yellow curds. Get off to a great start with our helpful advice on growing brassicas from seed and our answers to regular questions below.

When do you sow brassica seeds?

When you sow depends on the type of brassica. Winter cabbages, sprouts, kale and cauliflower are sown in late spring. Chard and kohl rabi is sown from late spring to early summer and spring cabbage in late summer to overwinter. Sow summer cabbages from late winter.

What is the fastest growing brassica?

Chinese cabbage is one of the quickest to crop and can be harvested just seven weeks from sowing. Also fast growing are Pak Choi ‘Green’, which produces a baby leaf crop in 30 days, and Spinach ‘Apollo’, which can be cut as baby leaf from six weeks.

What are the best companion plants for brassicas?

Good companion plants for brassicas are nasturtiums as they will attract the cabbage white butterflies, keeping them away from your crop. Mint can help deter flea beetles, but be careful where you plant as mint spreads.

What are the easiest leafy green seeds to grow?

Spinach seeds are one of the easiest leafy green seeds to grow. ‘Perpetual’ is a good variety for cooking while ‘Red Veined’ has attractive leaves that are excellent in a salad when small.
