  • Gunma cabbage

    Has anyone tried Gunma cobbage, in a rash moment I bought some of these cabbage plants, and now wondering if they are as good as their blurb says.
    it may be a struggle to reach the top, but once your over the hill your problems start.

    Never heard of them but just read the blurb and I am tempted. Using the leaves as wraps would be useful as I have a problem eating wheat, Chinese cabbage/lettuce is okay but not brilliant.

    Then again, I'm not sure what a cabbage chip butty would taste like

        Thanks VC but now worried about this bit .( Outer leaves can�t hold up once nighttime temperatures plummet to the 20s) how can the temperature plummet to something it never reaches unless they missed out the minus sign

            Definitely Fahrenheit as US still use it, they give optimal germination temp of 70! If it were C you'd be growing boiled cabbage!

              Just think of the money you could save if you could do that
