Pak Choi Yuushou F1 Seeds
Vegetable Seeds from Sow Seeds
Pak Choi is an unusual all year round veg that is becoming ever more popular with its use in oriental stir-fries and salads, it has a mild cabbage flavour.
Pak Choi Yuushou is a green leaved variety that is great for overwintering as well as for maincrop sowing. (Green stemmed varieties have more flavour than the white stem ones). It is very quick to crop (3-6 weeks), easy to grow and slow to bolt - a little star.
It can be treated as a 'cut and come again' crop i.e. harvesting a few leaves at a time or the whole head can be lifted entirely or cut 2.5cm above ground level and left to re-sprout.
Growing Tip!
If you notice any of your pak choi plants producing broccoli-like florets, don't panic. You can still eat them. In fact, they are great tossed in a stir fry. You can also try cutting the pak choi as a cut-and-come again for another harvest in a few weeks. Just cut them off approx 3cm above the base and they should re-grow.
