How to Grow Cabbage Plants:
✔ Sowing & Germination:
- Sowing Depth: Plant seeds ¼ to ½ inch deep in well-drained soil.
- Spacing: Keep 12-18 inches between plants and 24-30 inches between rows.
- Ideal Temperature: Best germination occurs at 18°C - 25°C.
- Germination Time: Seeds sprout within 5-10 days under favorable conditions.
✔ Growing Conditions:
- Sunlight: Requires full sun (at least 6 hours daily).
- Soil Type: Prefers moist, well-drained, nutrient-rich soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH (6.0-7.0).
- Watering: Keep soil consistently moist, especially during head formation, but avoid overwatering.
✔ Care & Maintenance:
- Fertilization: Apply organic compost or a balanced fertilizer every 2-3 weeks for steady growth.
- Mulching: Use mulch to retain moisture and prevent weed growth.
- Weeding: Remove weeds regularly to avoid nutrient competition.
- Pest & Disease Control: Protect from cabbage worms, aphids, and fungal diseases using neem oil or organic pesticides.
✔ Harvesting:
