Cabbage planting techniques include: soil selection and preparation, seedling transplanting; planting times include: spring and autumn.

1. Planting techniques

1. Choose loose, fertile and well-drained soil. The best soil pH is between 6.0 and 7.0.

2. It generally takes 4-6 weeks from sowing to transplanting. Suitable temperature and light need to be provided when raising seedlings. You can use seedling boxes or planting trays to raise seedlings. In the later period, the temperature should be gradually reduced to allow the seedlings to adapt to the outdoor environment. When the seedlings grow to 3-4 leaves, they can be transplanted. Transplant the seedlings into the arranged vegetable beds, taking care to maintain proper row and plant spacing.

2. Planting time

1. Spring cabbage is generally sown between February and April, which can be slightly adjusted according to the climate and region. The growth cycle of spring cabbage is short, and it can usually be harvested in about 2 months.

2. Autumn cabbage is generally sown between August and October. The growth cycle of autumn cabbage is relatively long and needs to be grown in a cooler climate.

Precautions for growing cabbage

Choose fertile, loose, well-drained soil. The best soil pH is between 6.0 and 7.0. Plow the land, loosen the soil, and remove weeds and straw in advance. Choose high-quality, disease- and insect-resistant seeds. When raising seedlings, control temperature and humidity to ensure healthy growth of seedlings. When the seedlings grow to 3-4 leaves, transplant them at the right time. Maintain appropriate row and plant spacing to avoid overcrowding. Apply appropriate amounts of organic and mineral fertilizers according to soil fertility.

Pay attention to fertilizing in stages to meet the nutrient needs of cabbage at different growth stages. Maintain appropriate soil moisture and avoid flooding or drought. Morning or evening is a more suitable time for irrigation. Conduct regular inspections to pay attention to the occurrence of pests and diseases. Take measures such as biological control and crop rotation to reduce the use of chemical pesticides. When the cabbage begins to form a tight ball, cut off part of the leaves to promote the development of the center of the ball.
