growing cabbage and cauliflower

Question

First time to try a winter garden. Do you do anything to promote the development of a head for either of these vegetables? My broccoli has produced well, but I don’t seem to be getting anything but leaves on the cabbage and cauliflower.

Answer 1

They need cool weather in order to form heads. You can help keep them "cool" by placing mulch around the base and this should help.
