Description

Mr Fothergill’s Pak Choi Colour & Crunch F1 Seeds, Great tasting, multi-coloured mix. Use as either mini pak choi or mature plants, just lightly stir-fry leaves or the colours may be lost. Baby leaves are very decorative used raw in salads.

Sow outdoors thinly where they are to crop, 1.5cm deep directly into finely prepared soil which has already been watered. Sow from May for baby leaf, June onwards for full size plants. Allow 40cm between rows. Seedlings usually appear in 14-21 days. Keep well watered in dry spells. Harvest unthinned as baby leaves or thin to 25cm apart to produce mature plants. Regular sowings made every two to three weeks will ensure a continuous supply. For ‘baby leaf’ pick a few leaves from each plant from approx. 5cm high, they will regrow for up to 4 ‘cuts’.

• Very versatile, harvest as baby leaf, mini or full size pak choi
• Crunchy stems and leaves for salads and stir-fries
• Excellent source of vitamin C
