Care and Harvest

Thrips and aphids are a common pest, but you can use our prevention and treatment tricks to keep pests at bay!

For ongoing harvests, cut outer leaves once they reach about 4 inches tall, leaving the inner rosette to grow. Avoid cutting more than a third of the plant. For a full head, harvest from the base at maturity.
Taste and Use

Add raw Bok Choy to salads as an accent green with a nutritional boost. It’s also delicious steamed or added to soups and stir fries.
Origin

Bok Choy, also called Pac Choy, originates from the Yangtze River Delta in China, where people first bred it 3,500 years ago from wild Brassicas growing in the region. In Cantonese, Bok Choy means “white vegetable”, though it comes in many different colors and sizes. Beginning in the 1300s, traders imported Bok Choy to Korea, where people began fermenting it to create kimchi.
