Like putting flowers in water. All of the cabbage family like high humidity, so you could maybe get by with putting them in plastic bags punched full of air holes. That's working great for beets this year. And keep 'em cold! Ferdzy: I hadn’t heard of that, but it sounds good. Like putting flowers in water.
