Cauliflower thrives best in areas with colder climates and high humidity.
What place does cauliflower like
Choose a well-lit place for this culture. Cauliflower will grow well in a garden where cucumbers, onions or legumes grew before. Seedling holes should be placed at a distance from each other.
The soil
Cauliflower prefers rich, loamy soils. It is worth preparing the land in the fall by digging it up and making a lot of manure or compost. The bed should be protected from drafts, but not darkened.
Fertile, neutral or slightly acidic soils are ideal for this type of cabbage. If the soil is acidic, then in the fall it is imperative to add lime to it, because it enriches the soil with calcium and magnesium.
Watering
Cauliflower does not require as much moisture as white cabbage. Watering can be done once a week. Too frequent watering interferes with the development of the root system and slows down the formation of the head. Since the roots of this crop are located very close to the surface of the soil, it is better not to loosen the plants.
Fertilizer
Of the organic fertilizers, manure, green manures, and straw, which remain after harvesting cereals, are most often used. These fertilizers are recommended to be applied in late summer and autumn. For autumn cauliflower, you can do this in the spring.
