To maintain your cabbage harvest, it is important to check the heads on a regular basis.
If stored properly, they will remain whole and relatively fresh until spring, unless you eat them all before then.
It is important to understand that it is also important to monitor the condition of the cellar, the level of humidity and the development of diseases.
Let us pay attention to the recommendations of the expert of the online publication Belnovosti and agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh.
How to properly care for cabbage
First of all, you need to maintain a stable temperature of 2 to 5 degrees and put the vegetable storage facility in order.
To combat excess moisture, many owners sprinkle the fruits with a large amount of ash, tobacco dust or chalk, which absorb water.
The use of such powder also prevents the development of rot. It is important to remember that it is better to process cabbage before laying.
If you didn’t do this in the fall, it’s not too late to carry out this procedure.
