Before sending them for storage, it is better to carefully inspect the heads of cabbage so as not to be disappointed later.
Cabbage is one of those vegetables that, if stored properly, can last for quite a long time.
If done correctly, the harvest will last until spring. Then the diet can be regularly supplemented with a source of vitamins and minerals.
But not all varieties of cabbage can be stored for a long time, not only in an apartment, but even in a cellar.
Some heads of cabbage are better to be canned or stuffed right away than to try to save them until spring or New Year.
Late varieties of white cabbage are excellent for long-term storage. Young and early varieties are not suitable.
The problem is that they are more juicy. Often there is a lot of moisture, which leads to the appearance of mold.
Special attention is paid to cabbage with damage (disease or pests). If there is rot or a crack on the head of cabbage, it is better to use such a fruit immediately or throw it away. During storage, damaged cabbage will quickly spoil and cause spoilage of other heads of cabbage.
