Do you have a preference for sauerkraut cabbage? Where do you get your seeds?
I use 'Stone Head'. They're about 3 lbs, maybe 6" in diameter and hard. About 60 days to harvest. And yes, as someone else mentioned, I think they're sweeter when grown in the fall. They make good kraut.

I also grow 'Charleston Wakefield', a 70 day pointy-headed type that does well here in the South. It's not super tight but sweet and we use it for making kimchi.

Lots of seed companies carry Stone Head. Search the internet by variety name.
