How to grow Chinese cabbage 'Green'

  • Full Sun

  • High

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water often. Green is generally regarded as a tender plant, so remember to wait until your soil is warm and the night time temperature is well above freezing before moving outside. Green needs a loamy soil with a ph of 6.1 to 7.8 (weakly acidic soil to weakly alkaline soil).

Growing Green from seed

Sow 0.39 inches (1.0 cm) deep with a guideline distance of 9.75 inches (25.0 cm). For optimal germination, soil temperature should be a minimum of 18°C / 64°F.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Green about 14 days before your last frost date.

Transplanting Green

Green is tender, so ensure you wait until all danger of frost has passed in your area before considering planting outside.
