I sorely need help with caulies. I have never had a very good crop, this
year I planted some in the same bed as Summer Cabbage, the cabbages are
thriving, most of the caulies have died, those that are living can only be
described as runts. Can one of the many experts here help please? What may
I be doing wrong, or at least not right? I have some healthy cauly plants
ready to plant out, I would like to think those may do well, with your help
maybe they can.

If your Summer Cabbages are doing well and the Caulies next to them aren't,
that's rather strange.
Have you treated them differently? Cauliflowers always need a bit more TLC
than other Brassicas, they cannot stand being checked in growth, i.e. lack
of water, and will respond with a rubbish curd or none at all, but to
actually be dying before that stage !!?
Roughly where are you? What is your soil type? and soil pH?
