The trick with pack man is to start your own and plant in the ground very early, first set of real leaves, when the weather is still cold. Then throw a clear blanket or plastic over it if you get a really hard freeze. It can take a few light frosts once it is fully hardened. This will cause it to head both early, but also at a size to make nice heads.
