Joi Choi Bok Choi (50 Days)

(50 Days) Grown for its stalks, which are used in Asian cooking. It is also delicious raw. Each plant bears 10-14 erect stalks, 40 cm (15 in) tall.

Planting Instructions
Seed outdoors as soon as weather and soil conditions permit. Cover seed lightly with soil, 6 - 7 seeds per 30 cm (1 ft) of row. Average garden soil and a sunny location are ideal. Thin to 30 cm (1 ft) apart when 7 cm (3 in) high. For earlier Bok Choi start indoors 2 to 3 weeks in advance of intended date for moving the plants to the garden. Germinates best at 21 C (70 F) in 7 to 10 days. Reduce temperature after germination to 15 C (65 F) and provide additional light to help prevent stretching and to tone up plants before transplanting outside. Several sowings of Bok Choi 10 days apart ensure a fresh supply into fall. Keep well watered during hot weather to avoid bolting.
