Planting & Care

Sow Pak Choi seeds directly in the garden or start them indoors for an early start. For direct sowing, plant seeds about 1/4 inch deep and keep the soil evenly moist until germination, which typically occurs in 7-14 days. Thin seedlings to the recommended spacing to allow proper development. For a continuous harvest, succession sow every 2-3 weeks in spring and fall.

Provide consistent moisture and mulch to keep the soil cool and prevent bolting. Fertilize lightly with a balanced organic fertilizer if needed. Harvest the entire plant or pick outer leaves for a cut-and-come-again approach. Watch for common pests like aphids and flea beetles, and use row covers if necessary.
