How do I easily save kupustu until the spring of fresh and juicy. My tricks

Stores may even without cellar.

When we buy seeds or seedlings, we always try to choose varieties that will be stored for longer. But it is not always possible to guess with the variety, sometimes by the description with good keeping quality just do not give a crop that was what kept. These are the varieties of cabbage, which give an excellent harvest, store hard. If time does not ferment, even fresh cabbage in the cellar begins to deteriorate, rot.

Before you share a secret, I will remind the mandatory conditions.

The first thing that should always be taken into account - it is time to clean the cabbage harvest until it cracked and frozen frost. The upper leaves, I recommend not removed for storage. And also it is necessary to cut stalks leaving a few centimeters.

Second, it is just as important to know when stored, cabbage is best kept at room temperature is 0 degrees, but not below.

The best ways to store.

Those that I basically always use - they are 2 ways. But another trick that I learned recently.

The first way - is to keep every head in limbo in the cellar. On that hang? And that does not hurt. Earlier I used for this mesh of soft and thick threads. These we were tying themselves many years ago, and used.

But somehow tried in nylon stockings - were kept beautifully. Also breathable and soft, you do not need to invent anything. But it is possible and other types of suspension, as in the above photos from the Internet.

The second way - it's stored in cardboard boxes at the bottom of which poured sand. In this case, it is necessary to stick cabbage stalks in the sand and each isolate in the same carton.

But the third method is suitable for those who have no cellar, but retain as much as possible would be desirable. Can be in the apartment, it is possible in the boxes in the hallway or other rooms. The main thing is not podmerzli and warm, if not very high temperature, not a hindrance. As it turned out, very little tricks can help keep fresh cabbage until spring.

My neighbor in a city apartment is laid out in the box before the cabbage mixed with mint. Just on the bottom sand in the box, and in the free space between the branches Kochanov she put peppermint. I was surprised when I saw the first time. But then I myself started using the same method. Cabbage does not rot, is fine.

Mint can be replaced with the same success horseradish. Well, it's this good at any summer resident simply complete. As I told a neighbor, 1 medium root on the box with 2 heads of cabbage, that is, between cabbage cabbages should be put.

By the way one of my favorite varieties of cabbage, well kept in the winter - it is "Hibernation". And you which varieties to plant and how to store? Tell us in the comments please.
