Early Round Dutch Cabbage, Heirloom Seeds

Early Round Dutch Cabbage — Dependable 2–4 lb Roundheads, Slow to Bolt, Full of Flavor

Early Round Dutch is the reliable, early-season cabbage that home gardeners and market growers have counted on for generations. Compact plants about a foot tall produce firm, medium-green roundheads 6–7 inches in diameter, averaging 2–4 pounds, with excellent flavor whether eaten raw or cooked. Known for its early production, uniformity, and slow-bolting habit, it’s a great choice for coleslaw, stir-fry, stews, and salads — and one of the most versatile cabbages you can grow. 70 days.

Why Grow Early Round Dutch?

• Dependable 2–4 lb roundheads — firm, medium-green, 6–7 inches diameter
• Slow to bolt — holds longer in warm weather than many early varieties
• Early production & uniformity — consistent heads, reliable season after season
• Compact plants — about 1 foot tall, great for smaller gardens
• Versatile in the kitchen — excellent for coleslaw, stir-fry, stews, and salads
• Open-pollinated heirloom — save seed year after year

Growing Notes

Start indoors 4–6 weeks before last frost, or direct sow outdoors in late summer for a fall crop. Transplant outdoors when seedlings are 4–6 inches tall, spacing plants 12–18 inches apart in full sun. Water consistently and deeply. Fertilize with nitrogen-rich amendments for best head development. Harvest when heads are firm and solid — before they crack.
