Chinese cabbage 'Granat'

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water often. Keep in mind when planting that Granat is thought of as tender, so remember to wait until your soil is warm and the night time temperature is well above freezing before moving outside. Granat requires a loamy soil with a ph of 6.1 - 7.8 - it grows best in weakly acidic soil to weakly alkaline soil.

7-10 days to germination – keep seeds moist while germinating.

Try to aim for a seed spacing of at least 9.75 inches (25.0 cm) and sow at a depth of around 0.39 inches (1.0 cm). Soil temperature should be kept higher than 18°C / 64°F to ensure good germination.

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

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Granat is a tender plant.

70-75 days to harvest.
