I start my seeds in March in plug / cell trays. When big enough & conditions are right ( May) they get planted into raised beds. The beds had a good layer of well rotted manure on them the previous autumn. And dug in a week or two before planting. Also with a treatment of nematodes a few days before planting.
They get puddled in and then stamped in. They are planted along side fellow brassicas and companion plants, nasturtiums, hyssop, thyme, coriander & dill.
I think the Stamping in has improved my results. The last couple of years I’ve had one decent head of cauliflower. But the rest have been half a tennis ball size or like yours gone to seed. But one out of 6-10 plants is still a bit cr@p !
