Cruciferous vegetables, such as white and red cabbage, savoy cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli or kohlrabi, are plants of the temperate climate, and therefore they withstand not too high temperatures. Seeds should be sown in seed boxes or directly into pots or multi-pots with a diameter of 4-6 cm.The seedlings are produced in a greenhouse, a foil tunnel or an inspection, and the temperature should be around 14-18 ° C.
Plants should be watered regularly, especially cauliflower and broccoli seedlings, which are more sensitive to overdrying than white cabbage seedlings. We start the production of seedlings at the end of February or the beginning of March, and planting them in April.
An interesting vegetable belonging to this group is Chinese cabbage (pak choy). It creates loose rosettes of leaves that can be eaten raw or cooked or stewed. Depending on the variety, the petioles are white or light green in color, juicy and tasty. With , harvesting of the Chinese cabbage is carried out about 2 months after sowing the seeds.We grow it both from sowing and seedling. To obtain seedlings, the seeds should be sown in mid-March and planted into the ground after 4 weeks.
