Pickling cabbage
Plants need a dive
During the development of the leaves or the first leaf, a pick is made into separate pots. Before this, the seedlings are well watered so that when transplanting, the seedlings are removed from the soil without problems, easily, without injuring the root system.
After the transplantation procedure, the plants are again watered with a weak solution of potassium permanganate. Careful protection of the plant from direct sunlight is needed. Temperature regime during the day - no higher than 18ºC. After the plants take root, the temperature is lowered to 12-14ºC during the day, and at night to 10ºC. If the soil dries up, it is moistened with ordinary tap water at room temperature.
Top dressing
