I sure hope this little warm weather wave reaches you!

The warm weather has already reached me with it at 77 today which is pretty warm for early January even down here. It has been pretty warm for a few weeks now with a few cold days thrown in but nothing severe. My cabbage seems to be doing alright along with my rutabagas; but my broccoli and cauliflower are already heading and some are through heading although some of the plants are tiny. I looked today at some of my 7 inch tall cauliflowers with one inch heads and small skinny broccoli with 2 inch heads. I think I am going to pull them all in a day or two and harvest what "little" I can and replant them and hope for better luck going forward.
