I always grow Durham Early and Offenham 2. I have grown Spring Hero before as well.
The idea is that you plant them reasonably close together (say 6 inches apart) and harvest alternate plants as spring greens. Why they are called spring cabbage I have no idea as the seed I sowed August 21 are being used as cabbages now, so they are in the ground for a full year (similar to PSb in that respect)
I also have my austurian tree cabbage growing but I am not sure when the harvesting period for these is supposed to be. I don't grow summer cabbage as I just cut a cross in the top of harvested SC and get smaller pointy cabbes just right for me.
I have net years crop sown now, some in early August and some only last week.These will be transpalanted into areas that didn't have brassicas growing in them this year.
