How To Grow Cabbage From Seeds:

Introduction and Uses: Cabbage is power food that is savoured since ages. In the ancient times, people declared this veggie to have moon power as it grew in the moonlight. But actually, its power comes from Vitamin C and Sulphur. It is known as the brain food and is ideal for weight loss, detoxification, lowering blood pressure, relieving headache and reduce hangover.

Botanical Name: Brassica oleracea var. capitata

Sowing Season: Throughout the year. Best grown in winter.

Sowing method: Transplantation.
Because the seeds are small in size, Cabbage plant is grown by transplantation method. Seeds are first sown indoors in seeding trays or outdoors on seed beds & later the seedlings are transplanted into the containers or in raised beds.

Growing container: Seedling trays/ seed cups/ small polybags/ Seed bed.

Growing medium: coco peat(indoors), Fine soil (outdoors)
 

STEPS FOR SEED SOWING (SEED STARTING) IN A CONTAINER:

  • Take a seedling tray with medium sized cells & drainage holes at the bottom.
  • Fill the cells/cups with a moist coco-peat medium.
  • Hold the Cabbage seeds and sow 2-3 seeds per cell/cup. Since Cabbage seeds are small in size, do not sow them deep.
  • Sowing Technique:
  • Just put the seeds on the surface of the medium & push each seed a little inside the medium by using pencil tip, so that seeds are not visible on the surface anymore & cover it with more coco-peat.
  • Or make small, shallow depressions on medium with pencil bottom. Put the seed on that depression & sprinkle more coco-peat on the top to cover the seed.
  • Keep the seedling tray indoors till the seeds germinate.
  • Covering: Keep the seed tray in a box or cover it with paper for first 4-5 days to encourage faster seed germination.

    Watering:

  • Water the seed cells with a spoon in the first week. Provide two tablespoons of water every day. Or keep the seed tray in another tray full of water for half an hour so that the water will be absorbed by the seed cells from the bottom, via drainage holes.
  • If seed beds are made outdoors, protect them from rain or direct sunlight. Use well sieved fine soil as a sowing medium & make a nice raised bed from it. Cover the bed by making a temporary roof of a plastic sheet. Water it in the form of a light shower using a watering can.
