Care & Harvest
💡Temperature: Prefers cooler temperatures (60-70°F).
✂️ Pruning: Check the roots monthly and trim any that are brown or extending past the yPod.
🥬 Harvest: Wait until the bulb is 3-4 inches in diameter before snipping it at the base of the stem for a one-time harvest, including its leaves. You can harvest some leaves before you harvest the bulb, but be sure leave ⅓ of the leaves to ensure the bulb continues growing.
Quick Facts
Kohlrabi is native to northern Europe. By the late 16th century, it had become popular across all of Europe, the Mediterranean, and other parts of the world. The first record of Kohlrabi in the U.S. is from 1806. While completely different in appearance, vegetables like Kohlrabi and Brussels sprouts are both descendants of wild cabbage.
White Kohlrabi is entirely edible (including the white-veined leaves) with an enlarged stem that resembles a turnip growing above the yCube. Its crunchy flesh is creamy white with a sweet, mild cabbage flavor. White Kohlrabi is a superfood with high levels of vitamin C, potassium, and fiber.
Enjoy fresh White Kohlrabi in vegetable crudités, salads, or slaws, or try it stir-fried or roasted. While it’s best to enjoy the leaves within 1-3 days of harvest, you can store the bulb for several weeks in the refrigerator if needed.
