Breeding history
Cabbage Transfer is the result of domestic selection. It was entered in the State Register in 1993.
Description of the variety

Growing and care
You can grow cabbage in a seedling and non-seedling way. If the vegetable is grown in the southern region, then the seeds can be safely sown in open ground in April-May.
The most favorable time for sowing seeds for seedlings is considered the beginning of March - early April. Gardeners choose the period from 10 to 20 March. On the territory of Siberia and the Urals, all sowing dates are shifted by approximately 2 weeks. Much depends on the weather conditions.
All material is disinfected before sowing.Seeds are processed only if they have not been covered with a special glaze. To do this, choose a solution of potassium permanganate or potassium permanganate. After that, everything is washed with hot water, and then cooled. Seeds are dried on a clean cloth.
For greater immunity, the material can be treated with "Epin" or "Zircon". This promotes good germination and creates a disinfecting effect.
Germination soil must also be processed, contain nutrients and be light and breathable. The acidity should be neutral.
Both individual containers and small containers can be selected as seedling boxes. Seeds are laid to a depth of no more than 1 cm.The planting scheme should be chosen 3x5 cm.
Seedling care should be as follows.
- As soon as the first shoots appear, the film can be removed from the containers. The containers must be rearranged in a well-lit place, while the temperature should be low, approximately 8-15 ° C.
- After 2 weeks, the first pick is made if the seedlings were in one large box. Each must be transplanted into a separate container.
- 5-7 days before transplanting, the seedlings should be taken outside for subsequent acclimatization.
Cabbage is planted in the ground at the age of 1 month. The landing date is from April 20 to May 10.
The landing site should be sunny. A garden bed where legumes or potatoes grew before will do.
Since the Transfer cabbage has compact outlets, the planting pattern will be 50x40 cm. It is important that the ground be dug up in autumn along with mineral fertilizers. When forming a hole, you can pour 15-20 g of superphosphate on the bottom.
The subsequent care of cabbage is quite simple.
- Competent and regular watering. Irrigation is carried out once a week. During the growing season, the frequency of the procedure increases. On average, 1m2 can have from 8 to 10 liters.
- Top dressing is applied 3 times per season. The first is carried out 14 days after disembarking in the garden. To do this, use an infusion of chicken manure or ammonium nitrate. The next top dressing is carried out after 2 weeks, and mineral fertilizers are added to the previous components. The third feeding is needed exclusively for the ovaries. It is best to use superphosphate and potassium. All nitrogenous fertilizers are excluded.
To grow a rich cabbage crop, you need to know when and how to plant this crop outdoors. Planting dates are determined depending on the variety. It is also necessary to properly prepare the soil and follow the rules of crop rotation.
Cabbage requires particularly careful care when growing. The plant quickly absorbs nutrients, so the soil needs to be enriched regularly. Adequate amounts of minerals, organics and nitrogen must be provided. Some products can be purchased at the store, while others are easy to make at home.
Disease and pest resistance
Cabbage Transfer belongs to early maturing crops. For these varieties, the cruciferous flea is very dangerous, as well as bugs, caterpillars and slugs. Pests are attracted by the juice of young foliage.
To combat them, folk remedies are successfully used.For example, wood ash - it is scattered on the seedlings themselves and on the soil. Ash, which should first be diluted in water, is also suitable here.
Cabbage is a very popular horticultural crop. But growing a good, large and tasty cabbage is sometimes very difficult, because it is often affected by a huge number of diseases and pests. The main role in the cultivation of this vegetable is played by regular prevention, which helps to get a rich harvest, and prevent the occurrence of diseases and the invasion of harmful insects. It is very important to start treatment as early as possible, otherwise there is a risk of spreading the infection to still unaffected plants.
