An extremely useful variety which produces large pure white heads with a first class flavour. Quickheart has a particular merit that it remains in tip-top condition over long periods. For the very best results, choose a rich, well-dug soil.
When to plant: Mid-Summer to Autumn. How to grow: Sow seeds 6mm (0.25in) deep in a seed tray or punnet using seed-raising mix or compost. Keep moist. When large enough to handle, transplant to growing position allowing 45-60cm (18-24in) between plants. Seeds may also be sown in direct clumps, later thining to one seedling. Feed regularly with a complete fertiliser. Harvest: When young and tender.
