Pickles, which are known to have many nutritional and health benefits, have been used as a nutritional supplement in many cultures in recent years. Lactic acid bacteria, in its natural microbiota of pickle, which have various probiotic properties such as increased natural resistance to infectious diseases in the gastrointestinal system, prevention of various infections, and reduction in cholesterol level are effective in this. In our study, various combinations of salt, vinegar and lemon acid were made to produce cabbage pickled and it was determined how it affected the natural microbiota during fermentation. When the results were evaluated in terms of the viability of lactic acid bacteria, the best results were obtained with 5.35 logarithms in the G2 produced using only 5% lemon juice from eight different groups, one of which was a control. In the G3 which was produced using 5% vinegar, this number was determined as 1.82 logarithms. At the end of fermentation, it was determined that the coliform groups in the experimental groups lost their viability. Yeasts were completed this process with an average of 1 logarithm. When all test groups were examined in terms of all microbiological results was showed that the production of 5% lemon juice G2 has optimally results in terms of growing LAB and inhibition the undesirable microbial groups
