Copenhagen Market Heirloom Cabbage
Growing Copenhagen Market Heirloom Cabbage
‘Copenhagen Market’ is a classic European heirloom cabbage prized for its dependable yields, uniform heads, and strong resistance to splitting. Plants produce solid, round, light green heads with a crisp texture and mild cabbage flavor. Its reliable performance and ability to hold well in the garden have made it a longtime favorite for home growers.
Start ‘Copenhagen Market’ indoors about ¼ inch deep for transplanting. Space plants 18 to 24 inches apart and grow in full sun to partial shade. Plants typically reach 1 to 2 feet tall and produce firm, 8-inch heads weighing about 5 to 6 pounds. Grow in fertile, well-drained soil with consistent moisture to support steady growth and tight head development.
Ready to harvest in about 68 days, cut the heads once they feel solid, firm, and have reached the desired size. This variety is especially well suited for late spring to early summer harvests.
Crisp, mild, and versatile, ‘Copenhagen Market’ is excellent for fresh eating, slicing, salads, slaws, cooking, and everyday cabbage dishes.
