Growing Instructions for Bok choy seeds:
- Soil Preparation:
   – Start with fertile, well-drained soil for optimal growth.
   – Ensure the soil is prepared with organic matter and nutrients.
- Sowing Seeds:
   – Sow the seeds in the spring after the last frost or in early summer.
   – Alternatively, you can sow seeds in late summer or early fall for a different growing season.
   – Keep the soil consistently moist during the germination and early growth stages.
- Moisture Management:
   – Maintain soil moisture throughout the growing period.
   – Adequate watering is crucial, especially during dry spells.
- Fertilization:
   – Fertilize the plants as needed based on the nutrient requirements of cabbage.
   – Consider using a balanced fertilizer to support healthy growth.
- Temperature Preferences:
   – Optimal growing temperatures are in the 60s°F (15-25°C).
   – Pak Choi is sensitive to extreme temperatures, and exposure to frost or prolonged temperatures below 50°F may lead to bolting.
- Mulching (For Fall Crops):
   – Mulch around fall crops to regulate soil temperature and moisture.
   – This helps to avoid premature bolting, ensuring a longer harvest period.
- Harvesting:
   – Harvest Pak Choi when the leaves are young and tender for the best flavor and texture.
   – Use in stir-fries, sautés, or braised dishes to enjoy its unique taste.
Note; Adjust planting times based on local climate conditions and follow best practices for cabbage cultivation to maximize the yield and quality of the harvest.
