The white cabbage variety Snowwhale is a late-maturing hybrid of domestic breeding intended for open ground cultivation. The vegetation period ranges from 135 to 155 days, allowing harvest in October-November. The heads are light green with a bluish tint, flat-rounded in shape, dense and large, weighing from 2.5 to 5 kg. When cut, the cabbage has a snow-white color, which served as the basis for the variety name. Yield reaches up to 10 kg per square meter, and high transportability and commercial appearance make this variety in demand among gardeners and farmers.
Snowwhale variety is characterized by high resistance to bacterial infections such as vascular bacterial wilt and Fusarium wilt, as well as resistance to cracking and frost. Plants require timely fertilization and agricultural measures to prevent clubroot and rot diseases. Thanks to these qualities, the cabbage retains its taste characteristics and commercial appearance during long-term storage and transport.
Snowwhale is ideal for long-term storage in cold conditions at temperatures from 0 to +4 degrees, which allows preserving the harvest for 6-8 months, and according to some data, up to 7 months. This variety is widely used for culinary processing, especially for pickling and winter consumption fresh. Thanks to its dense structure and excellent taste qualities, Snowwhale cabbage is one of the best options for winter diet.
