Spring Greens - recommendations required

[sewer rat]

Hi y'all
I am going to be sowing my spring greens next month - lots and lots of them - but I would appreciate your recommendations re varieties.
My only condition is that it must be hardy as hell. I'm not worried about whether or not it will produce heads later - I don't intend to have them in the ground long enough for that to happen anyway.
Cheers peeps.

I have only planted cabbage once, especially for spring greens. It was marketed as "Flower of Spring" Cabbage and I must say I was very pleased with it. Now I am inclined to plant any cabbage seed I have left over and see how it does

I grow Offenham Flower of Spring every year. It's lovely.
Very hardy with large conical heads carried on short stems. For cutting in spring - maturing time approx 36 weeks from sowing. Dobies: Cabbage Offenham 2 - Flower of Spring Seeds: Plants with short stems.

Hi guys,

Forgive my ignorance - what do you mean by spring greens? Do you just cut cabbage leaves before they form a head (as baby leaves)?

Thanks,

[Two_Sheds]

yes, Norazina, exactly that. you plant them closer together too.

thanks, Two Sheds. One more question though - is it too late to plant this year?(I love everything cabbage related!!!)

Hi - another vote here for Offenham. I've just sown some this morning. July is the usual recommended month - just squeaked in then!
