Planting & Care
Sow Bok Choy seeds directly in the garden about 1/4 inch deep, spacing them 1-2 inches apart initially, then thin to 6-12 inches apart. For a continuous harvest, sow seeds every 2-3 weeks. Keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Bok Choy prefers cooler temperatures and may bolt in hot weather, so provide afternoon shade in warmer climates. Fertilize lightly with a balanced organic fertilizer every few weeks.
Harvest baby greens in about 30 days or full heads in 45-50 days. Cut the entire plant at the base or harvest outer leaves for a prolonged yield. Monitor for common pests like aphids and flea beetles, and use row covers if necessary.
