Just a quick one. I am new to gardening and i have taken over an allotment. I am attempting to grow much of what is intended to go into the ground from seed. Most things have been pretty successful so far but i have had problems with my cabbages.

I planted Greyhound and a type of red cabbage (Drumhead?). Nearly all the seeds germinated and when i thought they were ready to transplant to biiger pots i did so and moved into my cold frame

It looks like i have lost all of them! We have had no frsot (UK-Midlands) and everything else is fine. I used Westland West + Advanced compost with a little bit of lime in (i was advised to do that)

Anything i have done wrong or have i just been unlucky? It seems strange that i have lost them all (there are 1 or 2 still alive that i didn't have time to transplant)

Thanks
That is of course Cabbages and NOT Gabbages!!!! LOL
