oh i got some of the kalibos in a swap but mine were growing great till the got loads of whitefly they started to heart up last week but now I'm not sure if they'll get any bigger. if they don't it will be a very small head.

PS your brassicus looks swell :).

It doesn't store as well as the roundheads in my experience...  :-\
