Care
The cultivation of Galaxy F1 cabbage is carried out by the seedling method, and this requires appropriate knowledge and rules.
Lighting
This variety is necessary in high-quality light both at the time of seedling creation and after planting in a permanent place. Excessive sunlight reflects poorly on the fetus. In order for the light to be even and moderate, it is necessary to use low density agrofiber.
Temperature
After the cabbage seeds have hatched, the temperature should be + 6-8 degrees, which will give them the opportunity to hatch additionally, and they will germinate to the desired size. Then it is necessary to increase the temperature during the day to +16 degrees, at night to +12 degrees. Before planting seedlings, hardening must be done. To do this, they need to be taken out into fresh air for several hours.
Watering
First, the seeds are placed in well-moistened soil. Subsequent watering of seedlings should be performed only in urgent need, when the top of the soil dries up a little. In order not to overdo it with irrigation, it is necessary to observe the golden mean.
Slightly stretched cabbage requires even more water to gain weight. It is necessary to irrigate often and a lot with warm water. The main watering should be in the evening, when the heat subsides. If you water during rush hour, when the sun is shining, the water will drain faster. The root of the leaves will dry out, and the cabbage can deteriorate in a short time.
Feeding
The quality of the crop will be higher if the land is fed at the time of head creation. During the season, it is necessary to make 5 feedings of the soil with nutrients. For this, wet composts, nitrophoska, potassium chloride are used. You can also add organic matter, especially mullein infusion, wood ash, fermented weeds.
Insects and diseases
Diseases that can be dangerous for Galaxy cabbage:
- Keela. To eliminate it, it is necessary to add formalin to the water, stir, treat the leaves with a solution, and dispose of diseased inflorescences.
- White rot. To avoid this disease, it is necessary to use top dressing. It is also important to follow the rules of crop rotation.
- Blackleg. The Fitosporin remedy is used, which quickly eliminates the fungus that provokes the onset of pathology.
- Gray rot. This problem occurs during storage. The shed or cellar should be well ventilated, and the walls should be covered with bleach.
Among insects, the most dangerous are:
- Whitefish, scoop, cabbage fly. The soil should be covered with a mixture of naphthalene and sand as a preventive measure. If insects do arise, then it is necessary to treat it with a dust mixture.
- Cruciferous flea. It can be removed with ground pepper or tobacco smoke.
- Aphid. To eradicate it, special means or an infusion of tobacco dust are used.

Last year we decided to buy Galaxy seeds. We decided to try the seedling method, all the seeds did not hatch. We bought another bag, like some seeds appeared, planted in the ground. But the fruit did not come out. In general, we were not able to grow cabbage, although other varieties take root well and give a high-quality harvest.

This year I decided to plant this variety on my site. I found out about it on the Internet, I was just looking for an online store through which I wanted to order other varieties of cabbage, but I came across Galaxy. After reading the good reviews, I decided to buy. Did everything in accordance with the rules, dropped off right on time. The first shoots sprouted on the 5th day after landing in the ground. After 100 days she reaped a rich harvest. I am very happy!
