Proper planting of vegetables ensures the success of growing a rich harvest. Therefore, in this article, we decided to talk about planting cabbage in open ground.

In order for seedlings to grow well and form a healthy crop, they need nutrients.

Cabbage belongs to those vegetable crops that are very painful to transplant into open ground and can easily die after that.

The secret of healthy cabbage is to introduce the necessary nutrients when planting in the soil.

Not all novice gardeners know what to put in the hole when planting white cabbage.

If your beds have acidic soil, then cabbage can get a hernia. Hernia is a fungal disease that affects the root system, the growth of cabbage is inhibited, development stops and seedlings may die. It is necessary to add ash or dolomite flour, mix with the earth.

Dig a deep hole so that the cabbage seedling is almost gone for better watering, and then add soil as the cabbage grows to develop additional roots.

Pour humus, 0.5 teaspoon of mustard powder, 1 tablespoon of crushed eggshell and one tablespoon of ash, and half a teaspoon of superphosphate into the hole, mix everything thoroughly and water with a weak solution of potassium permanganate.

Deepen the seedlings to the lower leaves, and after planting, spread sawdust soaked in birch tar. Birch tar will protect cabbage from pests, and sawdust is good for mulch.
