If you follow all the recommendations regarding the correct cultivation of cabbage, you can confidently count on a rich and decent harvest.
Therefore, it is important to get rid of some common mistakes.
What are the most common shortcomings?
Inappropriate Predecessor Plants
It is worth understanding that during the summer season, plants actively consume resources, so it may be impossible to restore the balance by adding fertilizers.
If the predecessor plant consumed the same nutrients that cabbage needs, then you can forget about a decent harvest, says Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert of the online publication BelNovosti, an agronomist and landscape designer.
Cabbage can be safely planted after garlic, potatoes, cucumbers and legumes.
Amount of light
Not everyone remembers that cabbage needs a lot of sunlight in order to form strong and large heads.
Therefore, make sure that other plants do not shade the vegetable.
Too dense plantings
Some people try to grow a large number of crops on a limited area at the same time. However, it is worth understanding that only very fertile soil can "feed" dense plantings.
Therefore, keep track of how many crops are on the site.
