You probably could sow seed now and do better !! I grew some this year for the same reason,,Kimchi !! Did not head in Texas heat !! I used it as it was and still made great kimchi !! I did add a bit of mustard greens to mine !! It added to the spiceiness and was great !! Mine just sprawled like other greens in this summer heat !! http://kitchengardeners.org/forum/napa-cabbages-are-not-heading#comment-2826
