Release in Fall of 2026

Bring a crisp, tender, and fast-growing Asian gourmet classic to your garden beds with our White Stem Pak Choy (Bok Choy). A spectacular heirloom favorite, this variety produces beautiful, upright heads featuring thick, juicy, snow-white stems contrasted by smooth, dark green leaves. Celebrated for its mild, refreshing, and subtly sweet flavor, it is an absolute necessity for authentic stir-fries, fresh summer salads, and nutrient-rich steamed side dishes.

Whether you are looking to get a jumpstart on early spring greens or planning a heavy autumn harvest, White Stem Pak Choy grows rapidly and effortlessly. It can be harvested at multiple stages—either pulled early as incredibly tender "baby bok choy" or left to reach its impressive, crunchy maturity.

Quick Growing Facts

• Plant Type: Fast-Growing Cool-Season Brassica

• Mature Height: 8 to 12 inches

• Plant Spread: 6 to 8 inches

• Days to Harvest: 45 to 50 days (Can be harvested as baby greens in just 30 days!)

• Sunlight Requirements: Full Sun to Partial Shade (Incredibly adaptable; tolerates partial shade better than most vegetables)

• Hardiness Zones: 2 through 11 (Thrives as a spring and fall crop in cooler zones, and a winter crop in warmer southern regions)

Planting & Care Guide

• When to Plant: Direct-sow seeds outdoors 4 to 6 weeks before your region's last expected spring frost, or start indoors early under lights. For a spectacular late-season harvest, direct-sow again in late summer, about 6 to 8 weeks before your first autumn freeze.

• Seeding Depth: 1/4 inch deep. Cover lightly with finely sifted soil and water gently. Pak Choy seeds are round, tough, and sprout incredibly fast, typically popping up from the dirt in just 4 to 7 days.

• Spacing: Thin or space individual plants about 6 to 8 inches apart. If you love baby bok choy, you can leave them spaced closer together (3 to 4 inches) and harvest every other plant early to let the remaining ones expand to full size.

• Watering: Maintain consistent, even moisture throughout the entire lifecycle. Pak Choy has shallow roots and grows so rapidly that it absolutely hates drying out. Regular watering keeps the thick white stems incredibly crisp, juicy, and sweet rather than tough and bitter.

• Pro Gardening Tip: The secret to perfect Pak Choy is timing and temperature! Because it belongs to the cool-season brassica family, it thrives beautifully in the mild temperatures of spring and autumn. If planting in the spring, try to get it harvested before the blistering mid-summer heat arrives, or plant it in an area that gets cool afternoon shade. This prevents the plant from "bolting" (sending up a flower stalk early) and ensures your leaves stay tender and sweet all the way to the kitchen table.
