No summer resident wants to bother so much as to grow one cabbage for pickling, another for borscht or cabbage rolls.

The main criterion for a future harvest is storage without problems and hassle, and it would be good if the heads of cabbage themselves grew large and strong.

Here are the varieties of white cabbage that need to be planted so that the harvest lasts until spring.

Experienced gardeners recommend paying attention to the following varieties and hybrids.

"Express F1"

This is an early-ripening cabbage. Among its relatives, it is distinguished by large and high-quality heads. The harvest is stored until spring and does not cause trouble, it is consistently high, and at the same time it shows enviable resistance during growth to the main enemy of cabbage - drought.

The cold doesn't scare him either.

"Glory 1305"

This is already a representative of mid-season varieties. The heads are strong and reach an impressive 4 kilograms. Low temperatures are no problem for the harvest. This cabbage is chosen by lovers of home-made preserves - it is excellent for pickling, fermentation and other culinary delights.

"Amager 611"

Late variety. Its main advantage is that the ripening heads do not crack, which makes them ideal for storage. Another pleasant moment: the longer this cabbage is stored, the tastier it becomes.
