Red cabbage Granat
Brassica oleracea convar. capitata var. rubra
Medium-late variety which makes up to 2 kg large, firm and round heads that are also suitable for storage. This variety is also suitable for areas with shorter vegetation. It needs from 70 to 80 days to grow from seedling to forming a head.
Different varieties of cabbage are divided into early, mid-late and late according to the length of the growing season. Early varieties grow from seedlings to head up to 60 days, mid-late up to 80 days and late over 90 days. Early varieties can be sown in several periods throughout the year, even in the summer. Late varieties can only be sown in spring, otherwise they don't grow fully before winter.
Cabbage is usualy attacked by two pests: caterpillars and flea beetles. Caterpillars eat the leaves and the heart of the plant. Ecologically, we can get rid of them by cooking 1 L of wormwood tea, diluting it in 5-10 L of water and sprinkling it on affected plants. If necessary, we repeat the proces after a few days.
Flea beetle makes little holes on the plant which is very tipical for him. we can get rid of him with crop rotation (5-7 years) or with persisten loosening of the soil. Sowing or planting other brassica, such as Chinese cabbage or mustard, does not help!
