The varietal hybrid Hurricane F1 is of Dutch origin. This is a mid-late type of white cabbage, recommended for fresh consumption and long-term storage. The heads of cabbage lie perfectly. The variety exhibits stable productivity. The purpose of the hybrid is to be a universal vegetable, suitable for salads, pickling and various dishes.

The word Hurricane is translated as hurricane. Dutch cabbage is very popular in Russia; it can grow in a greenhouse and open ground. Breeders have developed many varieties that have the same growing conditions as our climate. Feature - the culture needs a lot of light, which is easy to provide in an open space.

Hurricane Cabbage

From the variety of varieties, one can distinguish a classification according to the selection method: hybrids obtained by crossing varieties, and originals. The first variety is designated F1 and is characterized by the fact that the plant does not have viable seeds. You have to buy them for sowing every year. But they are resistant to diseases. Therefore, many farms are switching to hybrids. Next, we will get acquainted with the characteristics of this cabbage variety.

Features of cultivation

Despite the fact that Hurricane F1 cabbage is quite resistant to low temperatures and is intended for open ground, it is better to grow it in seedlings. Vegetables can be grown in open ground in the southern regions of the country. If spring frosts are expected, it is better to cover the plantings with film. When grown by seedlings, plants are planted in the ground in mid-May. By this time, the plants should have at least 4 leaves, and their height should vary from 15 to 20 cm.

This hybrid requires nutritious soil. Therefore, it is advisable to add organic fertilizers to the soil in the fall. We apply mineral fertilizers to the soil only if its composition is known. Garden crops do not grow well in soils with a high nitrogen content.

21 days after planting the seedlings in the ground, the plants need to be earthed up. We repeat this procedure after another 10 days.

Stronger plants have a powerful root system, which simplifies planting care. Cabbage needs to be watered in a timely manner, the soil should be loosened and weeds should be removed. The plant easily tolerates the lack of the required amount of moisture. But, with insufficient watering, heads of cabbage of medium and small sizes are formed, which negatively affects the yield.

How to properly plant cabbage seedlings

It is better to grow late varieties of cabbage in seedlings, especially in regions with a short warm period, where the heads of cabbage may not have time to ripen before the onset of frost. When planting cabbage seedlings, it should be taken into account that they are planted in a permanent place when the age of the seedlings is 30-35 days. Based on this and the climatic conditions of the growing region, the time for planting seed for seedlings is calculated. Since young plants do not have sufficient resistance to cold snaps, they should be planted in the ground when the likelihood of spring frosts is already low. Therefore, you can plant late cabbage seeds for seedlings from March to the end of April.

Purchased seed material undergoes all preparation and disinfection before sale, so it is only soaked before sowing so that the seeds hatch faster. Seeds collected independently in the garden are processed as follows:

• in hot water – 1/3 hour;
• cold – 1 minute;
• 12 hours – in a solution with microelements;
• 24 hours - in the refrigerator.

To plant seeds, you can use purchased soil for vegetable plants or prepare it yourself at home. The composition of such soil should be as follows:

• 1 part river sand;
• 1 part garden soil;
• 1 part peat (or humus).

It is better to plant late cabbage seeds in separate containers so as not to injure young seedlings during the diving procedure. If this is not possible, then seed material should be planted in large containers at a distance of 2 cm from each other.

Characteristics and features of the variety

Harikain is a type of white cabbage. The variety undoubtedly exhibits resistance to cold, but if the climate is characterized by late frosts, it is better to grow seedlings indoors. Hurricane - late or mid-late cabbage. Its maturation lasts up to 100 days.

The head of cabbage weighs 3.5 kg and has a small stalk. However, some specimens reach 5 kg. 500 centners are harvested from 1 hectare, the yield can reach 800 centners / ha, which makes it possible to classify cabbage as a high-yielding hybrid. Up to 8.7 kilograms are collected from one square meter.

Hurricane cabbage and description of the variety begins with appearance. The round shape of the head of cabbage includes light green leaf plates with a waxy coating and veins, densely spaced relative to each other. The ability to be stored for a long time, up to 7 months, is one of the main advantages over other varieties. The vegetable also tolerates transportation well.

Agrotechnics of cultivation

The resistance of the Hurricane F1 hybrid to cold allows it to be sown in open ground. But it is still recommended to grow it using pre-prepared seedlings. Beds for sowing this cabbage are well suited if located in the southern regions. But if the climate is special - spring frosts, you need to take measures, for example, cover the plantings with film.

Seedlings prepared indoors are planted in the garden in mid-May. By that time, 4 leaves are formed, up to 20 cm high.

• Sowing is carried out from mid-March until the first days of April.
• The cotyledon phase is a period of picking, seating in separate containers.
• Mid-May – planting on the beds.

When sowing in the ground (as when planting seedlings), a geometry of 50 by 60 cm is observed. The soil must be nutritious, for which purpose organic fertilizers are added to the soil in the fall. Mineral types are not added unless the composition is known to require such an addition. The crop does not tolerate high nitrogen content in the soil. 3 weeks after transplanting the cabbage to the garden bed, hill up, repeating this after 10 days.

Care during the period when the seedlings become stronger is not so difficult due to the powerfully developed roots of the plant. The following actions are required:

• Timely watering, preferably in the evening. In sunny conditions, moisturizing is carried out at least once every 3 days, and in cloudy conditions - every 5 days.
• Loosening in the morning after watering.
• Removing weeds.
• Prevention against diseases. To prevent insect pests, repellent plants are planted nearby: marigolds, lavender, garlic.

If the soil is insufficiently moistened, nothing special will happen to the plant, since it tolerates such conditions. But the size of the heads of cabbage will decrease, which will worsen the yield indicators. From the first days of life, cabbage develops intensively. Private gardeners note a preference for growing seedlings, and also noticed the need to fertilize with calcium 3 times a season. Such a cabbage grows without undergoing necrosis and has an excellent presentation.

Landing

The vegetable is cultivated in seedlings and in rows (sown directly on the plot).

They start growing seedlings from the beginning of April.

To ensure that the seedlings are strong, the soil mixture is prepared from components such as garden turf, compost, lowland peat and ash.

The seeds are planted 1 cm deep and sprinkled with a finely dispersed mixture on top. Cover the containers with glass or film and keep warm (20 degrees) until the loops sprout.

What are the rules for caring for seedlings:

In 40-48 days, the bushes are transplanted to a permanent location. In the fall, the following is added per 1 m2 to the beds:

• a bucket of rotted compost;
• 40 g phosphorus-potassium supplement;
• 100 g of ash.

Advantages and disadvantages of the variety

• Good preservation of the crop.
• Resistance to a number of cabbage diseases. For example, Fusarium wilt does not threaten the crop.

According to reviews from gardeners, the properties of the Harriken cabbage variety are such that they are happy to plant it again. For example, it has been present on the Belarusian market for a long time, having proven itself well. This is a medium hybrid that can be stored for approximately 5 months, until February.
