Seedlings begin to be planted in April. Seeds are pre-soaked in salt water, and then immersed in hot water for several minutes. They are planted in a box with the ground to a depth of 1-1.5 cm. After 2 weeks, dive - plant them in separate containers.

Care after planting

Rinda variety is a moisture-loving plant. After planting in unprotected soil, watering should be done at the root every 3-4 days. After 2 weeks, you need to water the entire surface of the bed. On hot days, watering is required more often - in 1-2 days. It is necessary to stop watering 2 weeks before the technical ripeness( on day 70 after landing in the ground).

Rinda has a short leg, so it does not collapse with growth and only one hilling is sufficient for all growth.

Do not neglect the removal of weeds. They not only prevent the plant from receiving the necessary amount of light and trace elements from the soil, but also are distributors of insects and diseases. Therefore, they must be removed as they appear and not left in the garden!

Feed the cabbage three times per growth season:

1. The soil when planting - a bucket of humus or peat per square meter
2. Seedling when hardened - spray with a composition of 10 liters of water: 1 table spoon of urea + 1 table spoon of potassium sulfate.
3. Roots with active growth - a solution of liquid manure
