Planting late cabbage
At the end of April, but better in early May, you need to start preparing the seedlings for transplanting into open ground. Twelve days before planting (usually late cabbage varieties are planted after May 10), the seedlings are gradually accustomed to the sun - the greenhouses are opened for several hours and the film covers are removed.
If the air temperature at this time is low, there is no need to rush with planting - in unfavorable conditions, late cabbage can send out an arrow with seeds, which means that you can forget about the harvest. Late cabbage varieties are planted in open ground when the seedlings have at least 5-6 leaves. There should be a distance of at least 70 cm between bushes, row spacing - 60 cm
And one more important rule: late cabbage should not be planted in beds where radishes, beets, radishes, tomatoes and other types of cruciferous vegetables grew before it. Favorable precursors include grains, potatoes, carrots, legumes and cucumbers
Late cabbage loves abundant watering. She especially needs it in August, when the heads of cabbage begin to form. After the seedlings are planted, they are watered every two days. The average water consumption is eight liters per square meter of soil.
Later, the cabbage will get by with weekly watering at the rate of thirteen liters per square meter. After each watering, it is necessary to loosen the soil (to a depth of 8 cm) under the bushes.
How to grow seedlings?
Cabbage is planted in the ground at the end of May, when the air temperature rises to 15 C. The seedlings are grown for 45 days. This means that sowing is carried out in early April.
In order to avoid diving, which would injure the roots, it is necessary to prepare individual containers with a volume of 300 ml for the seedlings.
For sowing, a soil mixture of peat and sand is used. Proportions: 5:1. Add 200 g of ash per 1 kg of mixture. Place the soil in a warm room. It should warm up well. The optimal temperature for sowing is 25 C. The air temperature should be the same when the seeds ripen.
Cabbage Miracle always produces friendly shoots for a record. The manufacturer treats the seed with biostimulants. He indicates this on the package of seeds. Before planting, gardeners carry out antiseptic treatment and dry the seeds at a temperature of 50 C.
