The quality and size of cabbage heads depend on many factors, including the nutritional value of the soil, the proper amount of moisture, and other care features.

In most cases, we can directly influence them.

Landscape designer and agronomist, expert of the online publication "BelNovosti" Anastasia Kovrizhnykh believes that fertilizers will play an important role.

What fertilizers can you pay attention to?

When planting seedlings

The fertilizers we add along with the seedlings play an important role. If you add quality fertilizers, the cabbage will begin to actively develop.

For example, you can add a spoonful of wood ash and calcium nitrate to each hole. The result of such feeding will please you.

Nitrogen supplements

It is believed that any cabbage variety should be "treated" with nitrogen-based compounds twice during the season. Urea has proven itself to be excellent. You will need 10 grams of the product per bucket of water.

You can also pay attention to ammonium nitrate: 20 grams of fertilizer will be needed per bucket of water.

Iodine

This simple top dressing significantly improves the quality of cabbage. It is necessary to dilute forty drops of iodine in a bucket with ten liters of water and water it.

One liter of the prepared product is used per plant.
