Thanks for this input! I've never planted out broccoli and kohlrabi right through the winter but I've been thinking about it and about planting out in pairs instead of four at a time. And every two weeks. I do have a hoop setup that I can place over them.
The 16 initial plants set out at intervals in January produced three pounds of side shoots after the heads were cut, most all of that from the eight Packman plants. Yesterday the ten remaining broccoli plants got pulled out. Eight were Green Goliath and they never did much at all. They'll get one more chance in the fall.
