How to produce cabbage crop
Jay Prakash pandey explains that cabbage plants are prepared in this season. Farmers should prepare the fields as soon as possible and get them planted. Also, take care of the distance between the plants at the time of transplanting. Do not plant plants too close. Planting a plant after making it makes the plant grow quickly and produces good fruit. Do not allow weeds to grow in the crop and keep pouring water from time to time. For this, it is necessary to make rows at a distance of 70-80 cm. A distance of 20-40 cm is necessary for the rows. After this, 3-4 seeds can be sown in each pit with a depth of 0.5-1.5 cm and covered with a layer of soil. You can irrigate immediately after sowing the seeds.
Harvest in the evening
Jay Prakash pandey told that most of the cauliflower is ready for harvesting after 60-75 days of transplanting. However, the time of harvest mainly depends on their variety, as well as their environmental conditions. Depending on the variety, we can harvest cauliflower after the flower is of a suitable size. The crop is harvested in the evening with scissors or a knife. Otherwise, the flower may get burnt due to sunlight and its leaves may wither. The grower cuts cauliflower with the 3-4 inner leaves surrounding the umbel. Due to delays in harvesting, the quality of cabbage can be greatly reduced, because then its florets are at risk of becoming yellow and loose.
