14 Cabbage Care Tips

June 6, 2019 | More: Garden Ideas| Plant Care

Are you starting a garden? Have you thought about the types of fruits and vegetables that you would like to grow? If you are thinking about growing cabbage, there is good news. Cabbage is a plant that is rather easy to grow. The great thing about growing cabbage is that it can provide you with many great heads of this wonderful vegetable throughout the growing season.

Cabbage comes in several varieties. The leaves may be flat or wrinkled. Cabbage may be green in color, but it can also be reddish or purplish in colors. This depends on the variety that you choose to grow.

Growing cabbage will take a bit of time and you will have to put in some effort if you want to yield a good crop. However, it is worth the work as this tasty vegetable can be used in many great dishes.

Here are 8 tips for caring for your cabbage plants.

1. Weather

When it comes to cabbage you want to remember that these plants will grow best in cooler weather. You can grow cabbage in any area, but the regions that have a long and cooler growing season with temperatures that range from 45 degrees to 75 degrees F will have the best outcomes.

Cabbage plants do well in cooler weather and can even tolerate frost. For brief amounts of time cabbage can withstand temperatures that are as low as 20 degrees F. When temperatures reach over 80 degrees F cabbage is much more likely to bold and then go to seed. For this reason, it is important to make sure that you keep your cabbage plants cool throughout the growing season.

Providing them with shade during the hotter days can help to keep them from bolting and will ensure that you actually get heads to form so that you have cabbage to enjoy.
