Two field experiments were carried out to study effect of starter fertilizer as soil application, calcium nitrate as foliar application and its interaction on the growth, yield and chemical components of cabbage. Each experiment included four rates of starter fertilizer (SF);SF0: 0-0-0, SF1: 19-54-19, SF2: 38-73-38 and SF3: 76-111-76 gm N- P2O5-K2O 100 l-1and three rates of calcium nitrate (1, 2 and 3 g l-1) as well as its interactions effect. The results showed that soil application of   SF2 or SF3 increased the vegetative growth and head yield characters of cabbage plant. However, SF1 or SF2 gave the highest mean value nutrition quality of cabbage head. Three different foliar calcium applications did not effect on head characters and total yield. In general Foliar of calcium nitrate at 1 or 2 g l1, improved some head quality character, in the two growing seasons.
