What are the best cabbages

philmay · « **on:** March 11, 2007, 18:40 »

Hi,
We have a packet of F1 lion seeds and they say cropping October/November. And we would like to be able to harvest cabbages for as long as possible. Can anyone recommend some other varieties to give us a continuous crop until around April/May?
Thanks

I grow Castello and Duchy....Duchy is a spring green type and Castello is a ball-head type. I like both but my fav is Castello just cos it's nice and crunchy.
