Cabbage is known as the "king of vegetables". It is not only rich in nutritional value and delicious taste, but also has strong adaptability and is easy to grow. It is a type of vegetable commonly cultivated in rural areas. So how long does it take from sowing to harvesting cabbage? Let’s learn more about it below. How long does it take from sowing to harvesting cabbage? The growth cycle of cabbage varies depending on the variety and growing conditions. Generally speaking, it takes about 60 to 90 days from sowing to harvesting. Among them, early-maturing varieties may be harvested in about 60 days, while late-maturing varieties may take 90 days or even longer. In addition, factors such as climatic conditions, soil fertility, and water supply will also affect the growth rate and harvest time of cabbage. What are the environmental conditions for growing cabbage? 1. Temperature The growing temperature range of cabbage is roughly between 10-25℃. The optimal temperature for seed germination is 20-25℃, the suitable temperature for the rosette stage is 17-22℃, the heading stage requires mild and cool climatic conditions, and the suitable temperature for growth is 12-18℃. 2. Lighting Cabbage likes sunlight and needs sufficient light for photosynthesis. In the early stages of growth, more than 6 hours of light are needed per day, and in the middle and late stages, more than 8 hours of light are needed. 3. Soil Cabbage grows best in loose, fertile, well-drained and well-ventilated soil. The ideal soil pH is between 6.0 and 7.0. 4. Moisture The soil of cabbage needs to be kept moist during its growth period, but care should be taken to avoid overwatering, as this may cause root hypoxia and root rot. The specific watering frequency needs to be adjusted according to climate, season and soil drainage conditions. Generally speaking, watering 1 to 3 times a week can meet the needs of cabbage. 5. Nutrients Cabbage has a high demand for nutrients, especially during the heading period when it grows vigorously. Fertilization should be mainly organic fertilizer , combined with an appropriate amount of chemical fertilizer to meet the growth needs of cabbage. In general, the time it takes for cabbage to grow from sowing to harvest depends on the variety and growing conditions. Its growth cycle generally includes four stages: germination, seedling, rosette and heading. Pay attention to controlling suitable environmental conditions, such as temperature, light, etc., to promote faster germination, emergence, growth and harvesting of cabbage.
