The success at cultivation of cabbage is concluded in courting not so much behind plants, how many behind the soil. That the head of cabbage was created, at a cabbage plant the powerful root system initially should develop.

The indicator of acidity of soil (rN) should be within 6-7. It means that on sour soils, such, as cespitose and podsolic and peatlands, good harvest not to grow up if not to bring the limy materials reducing acidity of soil. Ashes will be suitable for this purpose at the rate of 2-3 glasses on 2 sq.m. As to correct acidity of the soil in one year hardly it will be possible, allocate for bed cabbage in which some years regularly brought a lime or organic chemistry. In such soil and kily won’t be, as this disease typical for cabbage develops only on sour soils.

The soil of a bed is necessary for preparing at least a month before landing (even better since autumn) and during the same time to introduce in it all fertilizers. Earth before landing will manage "to be drawn and be aired", and the sprouts in it will start to develop at once actively.

The organic chemistry rich with nitrogen – manure, a bird’s dung, compost, excrements is necessary for culture of cabbage. And doses of organic chemistry should be considerable: not less a manure or compost bucket on square meter. Roots of cabbage grow in friable and nutritious soil more actively and extend on bigger space, than in the poor condensed earth.

Late-ripening grades land on a bed in width of 0,7-1 m in one row on the center with distance between plants 30-35 see. In a month weak copies remove, leaving finally between plants 60-70 see. For economy of the area condensing cultures which will be cleaned soon around can be placed: garden radish, salad, cylindrical beet. Early ripe grades can be placed and in two ranks with distance of 40-50 cm between holes, with the subsequent prorezhivaniye after a plant prizhivayemost. As a result on your bed there are only strong plants.

Roots of cabbage much better feel in aerobic (sated with oxygen) Wednesday. It is necessary for them, that oxygen got into the soil on considerable depth, and it is possible, only if the earth dries up on the sun in the afternoon. Then in it deep emptiness are formed, and air gets to deep roots. Such is temper at cabbage: if something not on it, a head of cabbage and furthermore large, it won’t begin to form therefore from time to time it is necessary to carry out superficial superficial perekopku row-spacings. It will allow to bridle growth of rhizomes of weeds and to improve soil breath.

The cabbage loves watering. It is especially important to provide plants with water in the second half of summer, during a laying of heads of cabbage. It is necessary to water 1 time in some days, spending to 1 bucket of water for a plant. The best watering – evening. Cold irrigation water quickly heats up from warmed up in a day on the sun of the earth. At night round plants and in them the moisture reserve for some days is formed.

The corresponding mineral mixes dissolved with water according to the instruction are suitable for top dressing. Sometimes after application of mineral fertilizers fruits are badly stored, therefore it is more preferable to feed up cabbage infusions of compost or a bird’s dung in the ratio 1: 15. Carry out one-two top dressing in a laying of heads of cabbage, pouring out nutritious solution not at the roots, and on the periphery round a plant. The bulk of young feeding backs is outside of a projection of the socket of leaves.

Probably, there is no other vegetable culture which would involve wreckers how belokochanny cabbage. First of all a cabbage moth whom vygryzaet the central kidney, and the head of cabbage can’t be stuck any more. On well-groomed kitchen gardens, as a rule, the cabbage moth doesn’t cause a serious loss, as strikes individual plants at young age. The main enemy of cabbage – caterpillars of butterflies of cabbage and repny white butterflies.

Solving for a cabbage crop – two last months vegetations. Despite seeming fading of life of the nature, the cabbage in autumn days perfectly feels, heads of cabbage are actively poured, and they shouldn’t be removed till November.
