What part of a cabbage do you eat?

Answer 1

None, sort of.No part that you'll see in the supermarket. The cabbage plant flowers after the second year, and the grower (75% of the U.S. seeds come from the state of Washington) harvests the seeds from the flowers. They are pollinated by bees, like many flowers and plants.

Answer 2

In order to get seeds from a cabbage plant, you must let the cabbage flower and then allow the flowers to stay on the plant and get fertilized and then the seed pods will develop. The only problem is that if you are using hybrid cabbage plants, as most gardeners do, the seeds will not necessarily be similar to the parent plants.
