Cabbage and fennel are the same. Cabbage is a vegetable with a shallow root system, the root system is distributed in a cone shape, and the stem is a shortened vegetative stem. The leaves are green or purple-red, oval, smooth, wrinkled and waxy. The rosette leaves are clustered on the shortened stems, and the leaves are spherical. Some lateral buds on old roots can also form leaf balls. The flowers are cross-shaped and light yellow, cross-pollinated. The fruits are siliques and crack when ripe. The seeds are spherical, dark brown, and weigh 3.2~4.7g.

Growth Habits

Cabbage likes mild, moist and sufficient light. It is more cold-resistant and has the ability to adapt to high temperatures. The suitable food temperature for growth is 15-20℃. If the fleshy stem encounters high temperatures above 30°C during the expansion period, the fleshy stems are prone to fibrosis. The choice of soil is not very strict, but it is suitable for planting in humus-rich clay loam or sandy loam. Cabbage seedlings must undergo vernalization at 0-10°C, and then bolt, bloom, and bear fruit under long days and moderate temperatures.
