Trouble with Cauliflower

This is my first year with a garden since I was a kid. I bought cauliflower plants from a local store back in early may. I think they went into the ground around May 12th. Only one started to get a head on it. As it reached about 1 1/2" I took a clothpin and covered head with leaves so it would stay white. It started to spread out like bolting broccoli. I have about 8 other cauliflower, but none of them are heading up at all. Does anyone know if I should just pull them out, or do I still have time before they head? Most of what I am finding online says that it grows easier in the fall. Does anyone else grow cauliflower? Spring or fall? If I am going to pull them out, I'm gonna do it soon, so I can get something else to grow in its place.
