How do you space your cabbages and caulis ?

I try to leave approx the recommended spacings between mine and they turn out just fine, but if you want just spring greens (ie not a hearted cabbabge) then you should pick every other one to allow the remaining to grow on with a heart.

that's what I do and what I read any way!

It's a false economy to crowd brassicas if you want them to do well.

Hmm when mini veg were very much in vogue, I read that planting a bit closer gave smaller heads but overall, higher yield. So, while I agree that you won't get show size heads,
and you don't want to cram them in, or you'll just get spindly plants, I still want to try slightly closer spacings for smaller heads and higher yield. 

I plant a little closer but pick every other one so that the ones left are allowed to grow a bit bigger
