I'm not sure about the cabbage, as I don't grow this for very early season and mine is still very tiny transplants, which I try not to let freeze (they'll be hauled back in from the unheated greenhouse tonight.)
_______________________________________________I know napa cabbage is very cold hardy, and I think Early Jersey Wakefield is too. But, does cabbage “button” from cold as broccoli does? I am trying to avoid covering the plants (4 leaves stage), or even wondering if it is worth it to cover them. Garlic is about 16 – 24” tall. Any thoughts on the garlic? I cut the row cover that had been on the garlic in two since it had torn, and it is quite windy to be handling row cover. Forecast here is 23.
