if you don't like turnips why would you grow cabbage?
bok choi may work if cabbage does not.
like the other poster said, cabbage worms can be a
real PITA, but you can cover the plants in a net and
keep them off that ways.
we grew cabbages once and they did well other than
the bugs that ate them all the time - even when i was
picking worms off every day and the wasps/hornets were
doing their patrols they were still not able to keep
up with the number of eggs being laid on them. we
still did get a harvest but it wasn't worth it to us
and i've not grown them since.
Bt is a bacteria which is poisonous when ingested
by bugs.
