Cool season annual. This very popular early maturing Michihili type Chinese cabbage is known for its sweetness and crisp leaves. The uniform frilly-leafed cylindrical heads grow to 18" tall and 4 to 4 1/2 pounds. It is a vigorous grower, disease tolerant and mature early. Chinese cabbage prefers cool temperatures for its main growing season. Prepare fertile, well-drained soil. Sow seeds in mid to late summer in a sunny location. Keep soil moist. Fertilize as needed. Exposure to frost or prolonged temperatures below 50°F may result in bolting. Note: Chinese Cabbage requires vernalization. Bud differentiation and bolting results from low temperatures of 41°F for a week or 50°F for two weeks. For spring harvest, transplant seedlings with 5-7 true leaves raised at 73-75°F during the day and over 53°F at night. Providing plants with adequate water and fertilizer after transplanting will promote faster growth. Popular in Japanese soups and braised with meat in sukiyaki. Used in yosenabe, ohitashi, stir-fry, pickling and salad. About 5313 seeds per ounce.
