e0“Late nitrogen had no significant effect on storage loss or the content of soluble sugars after storage in a refrigerated store at 0-l°C with an r.h. of 95-98%, but lowered the dry matter content in cabbage head leaves”

- Intervention effect Late nitrogen had no significant effect on storage loss.
- Intervention effect Late nitrogen had no significant effect on soluble sugar content.
- Association Harvest date significantly influenced carbohydrate composition in cores and leaves.
- Association Harvest date interacted with storage time for dry matter.
- Association Harvest date did not interact with storage time for hexose amount.
- Observation Storage composition trends were similar each year but differed between cores and leaves.
- Observation Core sucrose declined during the first two months of storage.
- Observation Core hexoses did not rise during the first two storage months.
- Observation Core sucrose gained during the second half of storage.
- Mechanism Carbohydrate translocation from leaves to core probably caused the sucrose gain.
- Association The authors found no support that harvest timing affects cabbage storability.
