Ornamental Cabbage and Kale: Avoiding Lower Leaf Loss Alert by Brian E. Whipker1 ([email protected]) Volume 3, Number 45 August 2014 Ornamental Cabbage and Kale: Avoiding Lower Leaf Loss Curtailing fertilization results in lower leaf yel- lowing, leaf loss, and poor quality plants.

Ornamental cabbage and kale (Brassica oleracea var. acephala L.) are major fall crops for many grow- ers. The colorful foliage and added height make the plants a nice compliment to fall pansies. Fertilizer recommenda- tions vary, and there are suggestions that fertiliza- tion should be discontin- ued to enhance center head development.

Available Online: https://sciforum.net/conference/ecsoc-22. Published: 14 November 2018 Abstract: Medicinal plants are in rich source of antimicrobial agents. The present study was carried out to evaluate the antimicrobial effect of plants from the same species as Brassica oleceracea namely, white cabbage and red cabbage. The preliminary phytochemical analysis was tested by using a different extract of these plants for the presence of various secondary metabolites like alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, saponins, terpenoids, glycosides, steroids, carbohydrates, and amino acids. The in vitro antimicrobial activity was screened against clinical isolates viz gram positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pyogenes, gram negative bacteria Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Extracts found significant inhibition against all the pathogens. Keywords: plant extract; phytochemicals; antibacterial activity; antifungal activity 1. Introduction Despite great progress in the development of medicines, infectious diseases caused by bacteria, fungi, viruses and parasites are still a major threat to public health. The impact is mainly observed in developing countries due to relative unavailability of medicines and the emergence of widespread drug resistance [1].

  • Ornamental Cabbage and Kale, Brassica Oleracea in the Fall, Chyrsanthemums and Pansies Are the Predominant Plants Offered for Seasonal Color
    A Horticulture Information article from the Wisconsin Master Gardener website, posted 3 Sept 2007 Ornamental Cabbage and Kale, Brassica oleracea In the fall, chyrsanthemums and pansies are the predominant plants offered for seasonal color. But another group of cold-tolerant plants without fl owers can help brighten the fall garden when almost ev- erything else is looking tired and ready for winter. Ornamental cabbage and kale are the same species as edible cabbages, broccoli, and caulifl ower (Bras- sica oleracea) but have much fancier and more col- orful foliage than their cousins from the vegetable garden. While these plants are sometimes offered as “fl owering” cabbage and kale, they are grown for their large rosettes of colorful leaves, not the fl owers. These plants are very showy and come in a variety of colors, ranging from white to pinks, purples or reds. Even though they are technically all kales (kale does not produce a head; instead, it produces leaves in a tight rosette), by convention those types with deeply- cut, curly, frilly or ruffl ed leaves are called ornamen- Ornamental kale makes a dramatic massed planting. tal kale, while the ones with broad, fl at leaves often edged in a contrasting color are called ornamental cabbage. The plants grow about a foot wide and 15” tall. Ornamental cabbages and kales do not tolerate summer heat, and plants set out in spring will likely have bolted or declined in appearance, so it is necessary to either start from seed in mid-summer or purchase trans- plants for a good fall show.

  • How to Grow Cabbage (Brassica Oleracea) Cabbage Varieties Come in a Spectrum of Colors, from Light Green to Dark Purple
    How to Grow Cabbage (Brassica oleracea) Cabbage varieties come in a spectrum of colors, from light green to dark purple. The scientific name of cabbage is Brassica oleracea, a species that also includes broccoli, cauliflower, kale, and Brussels sprouts. Time of Planting: Sow cabbage seeds indoors 4-6 weeks before transplanting seedlings outdoors. Transplant cabbage seedlings outdoors just before the last frost. Spacing Requirements: Sow seeds ¼ inch deep. Space cabbages at least 24-36 inches apart in even spacing or 12-14 inches apart in rows spaced 36-44 inches apart. Time to Germination: 7-12 days. Special Considerations: When growing for seed, increase spacing to 18-24 inches apart in rows that are at least 36 inches apart. Staking is recommended. Common Pests and Diseases (and how to manage): Cabbage can suffer from a number of pests and diseases including flea beetles, cabbage moths, aphids, leaf miner bugs, slugs, and black rot. Early season insect pests, such as flea beetles, can be deterred by growing transplants underneath row cover. Harvest (when and how): Cut the head at the base of the plant with a harvesting knife or pruning shears as soon as the cabbage head feels solid. Trim off the loose outer leaves and store heads in a cool place. Eating: Raw cabbage can be used in fresh salads like coleslaw. It can also be enjoyed roasted, braised, stewed, and stir fried. Cabbage is often fermented to make sauerkraut and kimchi. Storing: Cabbage will keep for about four months at a temperature between 32-40 degrees F and a relative humidity of 80-90%.

Without each of your willingness to invite me into your homes and share your stories, this thesis would not have been possible. Kaja, I thank you especially for your continued support and guidance. Next, I want to give a shout-out to my family and friends, especially my fellow thesis writers, who listened to me talk about my thesis constantly and without a doubt saw the bulk of my negative stress reactions. Thank you all for being such a great support system. It is my hope that at least one of you will read this- here’s looking at you, Mom. Third, I would like to thank Professor Waterhouse for sticking with me throughout this entire process. I could not have done this without your constant kind words and encouragement (though I could have done without your negative commentary about Billy Joel). Thank you for making this possible. Finally, I extend the largest thank you to my wonderful thesis advisors, Professor Karen Auerbach and Professor Chad Bryant.
