Variety traits

Maturity Group — Savoy Cabbage

Brassica oleracea L. (Savoy Cabbage Group)

The maturity group of Savoy cabbage is defined as the length of the period from mass emergence to the harvesting maturity of the head. Classification by this trait allows for the organization of conveyor production and the adjustment of agricultural practices.

In the reference 93 varieties crop Savoy cabbage, where this is mentioned in the description.

Savoy cabbage varieties are divided into early-maturing with a vegetation period of 105–120 days, mid-maturing — 120–135 days, and late-maturing — 140 days or more. This indicator is decisive for planning a varietal conveyor and ensuring a steady supply of fresh produce throughout the season.

The choice of maturity group dictates specific agricultural practices: early varieties require intensive irrigation in May and denser planting with an interval of about 35 cm, while late- and mid-maturing forms need higher soil fertility and active irrigation in mid-summer.
