Brussels sprout
Brussels sprout
Before planting cabbage, the field is cleared of weeds and hard materials such as stones and wood. Cabbage benefits from residues of old crops. So if in the field, there was a previous crop without disease attacks, the residues can, instead of being destroyed, be incorporated into the soil. If it is being installed for the first time, the ground is leveled and plowed or dug to a sufficient depth (30-40cm) to improve aeration and fluff up the soil. 1-2 months before planting the crop, compost or well-digested manure is incorporated into the soil, by milling or carving.
As with other crucifers, this species also needs to maintain uniform soil moisture for this and may need watering even in winter. In general, water needs increase with plant growth. Watering is necessary during the formation of the heads, otherwise there is a risk of the heads bursting. Regardless of water needs, good drainage of the soil is also needed to ensure good aeration of the roots
