We plant Cabbage around here (SE Wi) til about the beginning of Aug.

Last year we tried some as late as Aug 19 and missed getting heards by about a week. We had a cool fall tho. If it had been a bit milder or longer, we would have had nice late stuff for market.

Buying any of the obviously OLD cabbage family plants at the garden centers can be a crap-shoot. Especially with cauliflower. Once they get overgrown and root-bound, they tend to bolt and not make a head or make a very small, odd head.
