What is the best planting time and temperature for Chinese cabbage?

Which month is suitable for planting Chinese cabbage?

Since Chinese cabbage is a wintering vegetable, if it is planted outdoors, it is generally sown around August each year. This is because the temperature at this time is relatively high, which is suitable for seed germination, and it is autumn next, which is convenient for field management. Chinese cabbage has a strong regeneration ability, so after the first picking, it can be picked for the second time soon.

How to plant Chinese cabbage

1. Seedling stage

    Before the Chinese cabbage seedlings grow out of the soil, you need to ensure that the soil is moist. After the seedlings grow out, the weather will generally be very hot. If you encounter high temperature and dry weather during this period, you cannot water blindly. You need to wait until the evening to water.

2. Colonization

    The day before planting the Chinese cabbage, you need to water the vegetable field more. The seedlings should be transplanted to the planting site together with the soil near the roots. They should not be buried too deep during planting. Watering is required immediately after planting, but large amounts of water should not be used for irrigation.

Points to note when planting Chinese cabbage

   When planting Chinese cabbage, you should choose loose and fertile soil, preferably sandy soil with good drainage. After preparing the land, expose it to the sun for about 10 days, loosen the soil, sprinkle water and fertilizer, and then you can start planting.

2. Watering requirements

When the seeds of the Chinese cabbage sprout slightly, you should start watering. When the seedlings grow, water them once in the morning and once in the evening tomorrow. The amount of watering should not be too much. During its growth period, it is necessary to keep the soil moist, so that it is conducive to the growth of the Chinese cabbage.
