Planting & Care
Sow tatsoi seeds directly in the garden as soon as the soil can be worked in spring, or in late summer for a fall harvest. Plant seeds 1/4 inch deep and keep the soil evenly moist until germination. Thin seedlings to the recommended spacing to allow proper development. For a continuous supply, succession sow every 2-3 weeks.
Tatsoi requires consistent moisture and benefits from a layer of mulch to retain soil moisture and suppress weeds. Fertilize lightly with a balanced organic fertilizer if needed. Harvest outer leaves first to encourage continued growth, or cut the entire rosette at the base. Protect from extreme heat, which can cause bolting.
