Cultivation: Prepare fertile, well-drained soil. Sow seeds in spring after last frost or late summer/early fall in a sunny location. Keep soil moist. Fertilize as needed. Pak choi will bolt if temperatures are too hot or cold. Exposure to frost or prolonged temperatures below 50°F may result in bolting. Mulch fall crops to avoid premature bolting. Optimal growth temperature is in the 60s°F. Harvest around 2-3" tall.
