      @@Writer777-wanna_be. I cook the leaves like you would Kale, collards, & Chard. They are very good by them selves or mixed with Kale & Collards. The next time you see kohlrabi at a produce stand buy it with the full stalk (and leaves). If you cook just the leaves by themselves they taste great! Any part of greens such as the stalk (or other inedible parts) you should cut up, and put in the freezer. Take them out and use them in the blender with smoothies! You won't taste them, and they are way healthier than using just plain Ice in your blender.

    Have you ever cut the stem up to make individual plants? Seems like it would work as long as each section had some roots. I’m thinking each head would then have enough room to develop into larger heads.

    Great Video! I will definitely do it. I just counted over 160 tomatoes growing in a spare bedroom under cheap LED lights along with my arugula, kale, green onions and rosemary! Done it for years in the winter. They will need to make room for cabbage now! PS: I always plant green onions inside as soon as I buy them from the store and then cut off the top when I need some, and they will keep growing. I use the adjustable steel wire shelving. One shelf on the bottom for the potted plants and a top shelf to hang lights and support the vines.

    That's one I haven't tried and I love growing things from the GROWcery store. I've found cutting an X on the bottom of the stem seems to promote root growth, at least on the celery I keep growing.

      I heard that you can dip the base (the part that will grow the roots) in honey, wrap a paper towel around it then emerse it in water. I haven't tried that yet because I'm currently using some rooting powder I bought at Home Depot which works really well.

I'll cut them apart as long as they each get a piece of root. And try growing them separately. Liked and subbed!!!

    Hey you rock! Thank you! I'm here because a cabbage I am growing already, my first time growing them, has multiple babies growing. It already has the root system so I will harvest the big cabbage head and leave the little ones to grow and see how it works that way. I suppose I will cut those back and eat them till I have just one monster remaining.

      Not really, that compost and fertilizer isn't free and she also said she fertilizes every other week in one of her comments. I reckon by the end of it she has spent more then she has received monetarily and in labour for sure. Great idea but only positive gain returns if the compost and fertilizer you are using is home made and relatively free. I am not trying to be a narc here, I'm just being a realist. No point in kidding ourselves. If you make your own compost and fertilizer this is a brilliant idea.

    I helped out and a local 4-H St. Patrick day meal. I got put in charge of the cabbage prep. Guess who saved dozens of cabbage ends! 😋
    All mine are sprouting well just 1 week later.
    Question: has anyone divided the ends into separate individual cabbages before planting? I'm thinking of the similar idea that one does with potato starts. This would be more organized and evenly spaced out in the garden rows.
