Every summer resident and gardener dreams of a great harvest.
However, it is not always possible to enjoy cabbage, the fruits of which resemble a football.
Let's figure out how to actually care for the plant to get perfect cabbage heads.
Secrets of Growing Cabbage
Firstly, you need to choose only mid-late or late-ripening varieties, because early ones will not please you with the size of the fruit.
Secondly, before planting, the seeds must be disinfected, otherwise problems with growth cannot be avoided later.
After planting in the ground, cabbage requires protection from the scorching sun, so do not be lazy in protecting it with non-woven material.
In addition, plants should not be watered with cold water, so it is better to install a barrel next to the plantings, which will be heated in the sun and provide you with water at the right temperature.
To protect cabbage, sow marigolds around the beds and don’t forget to dust the plant with ash every 7-10 days.
