A cabbage develops multiple heads as a response to environmental stress or improper growing conditions, such as overcrowding, inconsistent watering, or nutrient deficiencies. When these factors disrupt the plant's growth, it can trigger the formation of secondary heads instead of a single, large head. This phenomenon is often seen in varieties like savoy or napa cabbage, which may naturally be more prone to producing multiple heads under certain conditions.
To successfully grow cabbage in your garden, choose a sunny spot with well-drained soil. Plant cabbage seedlings or seeds in early spring or late summer. Keep the soil consistently moist and fertilize regularly. Protect the cabbage from pests like cabbage worms and aphids by using row covers or organic pesticides. Harvest the cabbage when the heads are firm and fully developed.

It is important to ensure they receive adequate sunlight to thrive and produce healthy, full heads.
They much prefer big heads of lettuce or cabbage.
The leaves of cabbages are important because the heads form from the leaves. Cabbage leaves can be any color and shape.
