Cabbage - as spring greens, probably April. As hearted cabbage, May? Depends upon the spacing you've given them.

Jerome? Ours planted in June hearted in April.

thanks Tim, the cabbage I have given them 46cm spacing as advised on the label. Going on your experience with Jerome am I right in saying that I can expect it to head around June?

46cm? So we're going for the real thing!

Jerome? Your guess! Given a mild spell, probably earlier? Let us know.
