Cabbages all year round

[euronerd]

I've heard it said that there are enough varieties of cabbage around to be able to harvest 365 days a year. Whilst I don't want to do this literally, does anybody have any 'out of season' favourites?

Nice one Tim, hence the ' ' s.  ;D I guess what I meant to ask without being too long winded about it was, which are anybody's favourites for which times of year?

I find that even the highly cracked up Tundra does not see us through the winter. And I'm too lazy to grow Spring cabbage.

[saddad]

Tundra is great but you need a savoy to follow on and a proper spring cabbage to tide over until the Minicole...

I've just sown some more greyhound as I like to keep my ground covered in veg I prefered that cabbage to offenham as a spring cabbage.

Saddad we had a minicole that you send me seeds for very nice indeed had half as coleslaw.

I just do the usual but have had cabbage now since March and plenty more growing on.

Beat me to it on the Greyhound :)

Have tried Puma this year - tolerates close planting if you want smaller cabbages. Good flavour.

I have just bought some winter varieties and I am planning to plant them from seed today.

How do you ensure you have all year cabbages? So what are peoples planting plan for all-year cabbage?

[tim]

How? In my humble opinion, you can't!!
