This has kept me in cabbage from then until now and beyond. I thinned the rows for Spring greens and when I harvested each head I cut a cross in the remaining stem which allowed four more cabbages to grow.Interesting tip re the stem Vinny Do you sow in modules or direct?
I have recently sown some more Spring cabbage and this will give me as much cabbage as I can eat over a 12 month period without resorting to any other types.
By cutting a cross in stem after harvesting large head you get smaller hearts which are more suited to a single meal for two.
