Pak choi, also known as bok choy and Chinese chard, is a type of chinese brassica. It produces superb, mild tasting, crisp, succulent greens with white stems and dark green leaves, perfect for stir frying.

Sow from indoors from March - August or directly fromJuly - September.

Sprinkle seedsthinly, approx 2cm(¾ in) deep in rows 30-38cm (12-15in) apart; the wider distance is best for semi-mature to full-size heads.

Gradually thin seedlings to 7.5-10cm (3-4in) for baby leaf, to 20cm (8in) for semi-mature plants and to 25-30cm (10-12in) for mature plants. The thinnings can be eaten.

Earlier and later sowings for baby leaf can also be made under cloches or fleece in mild areas. Pak Choi is fast-growing and can be cut 4 to 6 weeks after planting. Succession planting with give you a longer season. Plants are very cold tolerant but Pak Choi will not survive a heavy frost.

Our seeds are specially selected for UK conditions and sourced from environmentally responsible, soil-associated organic growers.
