What to do if cabbage grows small and heads do not form: an effective solution to the problem
Unfortunately for all summer residents, high-quality care of plantings does not mean that the crops will thank you with a good harvest.
The reasons for the poor cabbage harvest were helped to find out by the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh .
Today we will look at a fairly common situation when the plants in the cabbage beds turn out small, and the heads of cabbage do not want to form at all.
Another characteristic “symptom” is yellowing of the leaves.
In this case, in order to verify your assumptions, you will need to pull the plant out of the ground.
After this, study its roots with all due care.
If you notice round, rotting formations on the roots, colored brown, you can be sure that you are dealing with a disease called “keel root”.
To prevent the situation from repeating itself next year, use another area for planting cabbage, and thoroughly lime this one or add wood ash.
