tender green leaves, ready to harvest in just a few weeks. Mild, juicy, and versatile, it is a staple of stir-fries, soups, and salads, and a satisfying cool-season crop. Who it's for Great for beginners and anyone who loves Asian cooking. Bok choy is fast and easy, giving quick results that keep new gardeners motivated, and it grows happily in beds or containers. If you stir-fry, this is a must-grow. How & when to plant Bok choy prefers cool weather, so sow it in early spring or late summer for a fall crop. Sow the seeds directly or start them indoors, planting about a quarter to half an inch deep. They germinate quickly, in about 4 to 10 days. Grow in full sun to part shade, spacing plants about 6 to 12 inches apart. Our Bok Choy growing guide has more. Growing & care Keep bok choy in cool weather with steady moisture, since heat and dryness make it bolt (go to flower) prematurely. Even watering keeps the stems crisp and the plants tender, and a little afternoon shade helps in warm spells. Watch for flea beetles and cabbage worms on young plants. Harvest Harvest bok choy young for the most tender leaves and stems, usually around 45 to 55 days. Cut whole heads at the base, or pick outer leaves as needed for a cut-and-come-again harvest. Use it soon after cutting for the best crunch. Benefits & uses Bok choy is a stir-fry star, but it does much more. Add it to soups and noodle bowls, grill or roast the halved heads, or slice the crisp young leaves and stems raw into salads and slaws. Its mild, juicy crunch makes it a versatile green.
