Cracked cabbage heads are not uncommon, but they should not be treated as a random event.
It is quite possible that you made a mistake in the process of caring for the vegetable.
The expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", landscape designer and agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , talks about the reasons that lead to such a development of events.
What is worth knowing?
Watering
Some summer residents do not have the opportunity to water the cabbage in a timely manner. For this reason, watering occurs periodically. Instead of watering the cabbage with the usual norm, many take water "with interest".
The cabbage cannot withstand such a volume of liquid and cracks.
Rains
If the summer is rainy, the summer resident should think about ways to protect the vegetable crop. Otherwise, the cabbage will not cope with a large volume of water.
It is necessary to build a shelter that will protect the vegetable during precipitation.
You overcooked the vegetable
It is important to remember that cabbage needs to be harvested from the plot in a timely manner. You should not leave the vegetable in the garden at a time when it is clearly ripe.
Otherwise, the harvest can simply be lost.
