Just start indoors about 6 weeks before your last frost date and plant 2 seeds per cell, repeat once a week for 4 weeks. Cut the weakest looking plant from each cell, if you had both sprout. Transplant all on your last frost date and then sow some additional seed in the ground and repeat a week later ... this should get you a steady supply starting in about 30 days with the leaf types and 50 days with the head type, successively harvesting through the Summer. Start your Fall crop indoors about 12 weeks before first frost when it is too hot outside and plant out once the daytime temps have settled below 80F.
Same as above for cabbage/spinach, except you can usually plant out earlier and leave in the ground later.
Watch the amount that you plant at once, because you will get overrun with it at certain times.
