This type of cabbage has few problems with diseases. But beware: Snails love the seedlings, and birds also find the small plants very tasty. Moreover, you sow in the middle of the butterfly season: so regularly go hunting for caterpillars. Or even better: cover your container with a MM hat, so that the butterflies cannot reach it.

If you leave the plants during the winter, they will only continue to grow in the spring, but you can continue to harvest from them. And fresh vegetables in the winter: who wouldn't want that?
