How much water does it take to grow cabbage?
I just planted a cabbage plant and I've been watering it 1-2 times a day with two glasses of water. I have read that you only are supposed to water it once a week, but after two days of not watering it, it became really wilted and looked like it would die. I'd stick to once a day if it is planted outside. Good luck!

Why do you grind the cabbage other than just stir it for the universal indicator?
Grinding the cabbage helps to break down the cell walls, which releases more of the pigments and compounds responsible for its color. This increases the concentration of the anthocyanins, making the extraction more effective. Stirring alone would not achieve the same level of pigment release, resulting in a less accurate or vibrant universal indicator. Thus, grinding enhances the extraction process, ensuring a better visual representation of pH changes.
Yes, cauliflower is good for you.
It is low in fat, high in dietary fiber, folate, water and vitamin C, possessing a very high nutritional density. It also contains several phytochemicals which are beneficial to human health, including sulforaphane, an anti-cancer compound released when cauliflower is chopped or chewed.
Boiling reduces the levels of anti-cancer compounds, with losses of 20-30% after five minutes, 40-50% after ten minutes, and 75% after thirty minutes. However, other preparation methods such as steaming, microwaving, and stir frying had no significant effect on the compounds.
Cauliflower is a source of indole-3 carbinol, a chemical which boosts DNA repair in cells and appears to block the growth of cancer cells. The compound also appears to work as an anti-estrogen, appearing to slow or prevent the growth of tumors of the breast and prostate.
Cauliflower also contains other glucosinolates besides sulfurophane, substances which may improve the liver's ability to detoxify carcinogenic substances.
A high intake of cauliflower has been found to reduce the risk of aggressive prostate cancer. Cauliflower is also a good source of carotenoids.

1: Select a variety known for producing large heads.
2: plant in organically rich, loose soil.
3: Make sure the soil's pH is about 7.5 - cabbage needs alkaline soil.
4: Use a balanced vegetable fertilizer according to directions but DON'T OVERFERTILIZE!
5: Keep well weeded, and grow it alone - not amongst other cabbages.
6: As it gets bigger, check it daily - when cabbages get large, they sometimes split and rot quickly.
