Answer :

It could be a number of things.  How much water do you give it?  What about sunlight?  Cabbage requires lots of both, and it would be a natural process so that the plant canconcentrate on the central part of the plant.  Without a little bit more information, your question is impossible to correctly answer. -Birdy
