Planting Tips for Cauliflower
Dr. Gulab Singh, a meteorologist, suggests that the planting of early varieties of cauliflower should be completed. In fields lacking Boron and Molybdenum, it is advised to treat the soil with 10-15 kg of Borax and 1-2 kg of Ammonium Malinate during field preparation.
For mid-season varieties of cauliflower, including Aghani, Pusa, Patna Man, Pusa Synthetic, Pusa Shubha, Pusa Sharad, Pusa Meghna, and Kashi Kuwari, it is recommended to sow them in nurseries. Tomato nurseries should also be established, with varieties such as Kashi Special, Kashi Aman, Swarna Lalima, Swarna Naveen, and Arka Jama being sown in rows in shallow beds. It is important to monitor for pests like Lahi and white fly, as well as sucking silver insects in vegetable nurseries.
