    Cabbage Seeds - Red Acre

    Store owner replied: Hello, William! Thank you for your interest and inquiry with us here at Eden Brothers! Some seed products are currently packed by weight, rather than by count. This count will vary greatly between different varieties of seeds, being different weights, densities, and sizes. We are in the process of conducting seed counts for all products. For the products we do have this information available for, this will be listed under the "Information Tab" of the given product page. We are working to have this Seed Count information available for all items in the future, however! Generally speaking, our packets of flower seeds usually contain approximately ½ -1 teaspoon of seed, while our vegetable packets contain approximately 1/4 tsp. For vegetables, we recommend that one packet will be sufficient for a home gardener for a single season. For flowers, we have "seed coverage" information available on individual product listings that can help you to determine the correct quantity of seed needed for the area you wish to plant.
