Mine are the same, i have left them in the ground but given them some coffee to push them on a bit. I think that we need to wait till april before we see proper sized cabbages. They are still growing so why pull them out?

I guess they will be fully bulked up by now and subject to the weather they will only get more compact not bigger.

Try squeezing them and if they are quite hard get them in the pot!

Mine are the same and will be coming out next month to make way for the spuds. If they are not good for eating then my hens will enjoy them even if we don't. Either way they will get eaten ;D ;D ;D
