What kind of cabbage are they, red cabbage starts out blueish, others prob do too. I'd plant them if they look otherwise healthy.

Cabbages can go odd colours if subjected to a sudden cold snap, or if they are getting hungry for nutrients.  Planted out, they usually recover and do OK.

Caulies and calabrese don't do so well and can bolt if given a check to their growth.
