Really, you should grow greedy feeders on it the first year. Cabbage
doesn't do too well on freshly manured ground as it's too acid.

Typically, you should do well with cucurbits, cauliflower, celery,
weeds, (fat hen and some of the the other goose foot clan especially,
which make a fine green vegetable), tomatoes, chillis etc.


Thank you. Notes taken.


Give your cabbages some lime.


How, please?
