Superphosphate and potassium sulfate

At the beginning of autumn, cabbage needs potassium and phosphorus.

That is why in September the plant should be fed with superphosphate and potassium sulfate. Just mix them in a ratio of 2 to 1.

Each plant should receive 1 tbsp of the prepared mass.

Simply pour in the required amount of mixture and then water the area.

Dolomite flour

This remedy will also help speed up the growth of cabbage at the final stage of development of this garden crop.

For every kilo of dolomite there should be 8 grams of boric acid.

Simply pour 5 tablespoons of the resulting mass under each head of cabbage, and then loosen the soil.

Superphosphate and urea

If you want to use a liquid product, prepare the following composition: superphosphate (2 tbsp.) and urea (1 tsp.) per bucket of water.

Each plant should receive one liter of the resulting liquid.
