I use a plate with a jar full of water on top. I have a large rubber band that I then wrap around the whole thing, for added pressure. For the first few days, I find that I still have to pack it all down daily, but after a while, the cabbage stops expanding, and it all settles down tightly, at which point the rubber band isn't really critical. I imagine I could use twine, and it might hold more tightly.
Ah, a plate. I see. Do you cover the whole works with a cloth or something?
