April has come, so it’s time to start sowing cabbage, this year I’m going outside the box.

With the arrival of spring, many people rush to plunge headlong into the dacha troubles. And the issues related to seedlings are given great attention. Even then, cabbageIt's sometimes controversial. Because there are always different options.

And today's edition. "Site" suggests considering a non-standard method of sowing cabbage for seedlings. Such a bouquet method seems extremely simple, but very successful. And even experienced summer residents will definitely appreciate these subtleties. They might even try it themselves.



The first thing to consider is that for the successful cultivation of cabbage, a suitable soil is necessary. It is no secret that this culture does not tolerate acidic soil. And this applies both to growing at home and growing in open ground. Therefore, it is better to choose a neutral (acidity) soil.



It should be borne in mind that cabbage seedlings need sunlight. And put it on the windowsill is only worth it if it is the sunny side. Otherwise, you will have to get phyto lamps, otherwise the seedlings will turn out to be frail and elongated.

Method of sowing cabbage
  1. Fill the cells with prepared soil almost to the top, slightly tamp. If the soil is dry enough, do not forget to moisten it.



  2. Seeds can be decomposed piece by piece into each cell, or you can pour, even without counting. Also remember to leave information about each variety, if there are several.



  3. Next, cover the lid to create a greenhouse effect, and send the container with seeds to a warm place. The optimum temperature is 25-27 degrees. After the first shoots appear, you need to put the seedlings where it will receive more light.





This method allows you to get a large amount of cabbage seedlings even in a tiny tray. And a kind of bouquet is formed, which can soon be peaked on individual containers.

By the way, for a cabbage transplant, it is better to take transparent cups so that you can see even the roots. At the transplant itself, it is enough to take a seedling cell and carefully separate all the plants.



Then in a slightly filled with soil cup under the slope place a separate plant. Then fill the container with soil to the very top, slightly tamp and fields. Do not forget to leave the tag if there are several varieties. Send it to a place where there's plenty of light. Done!
