How to Sow and Plant

Prepare fertile, well‑drained soil in a sunny location.

Sow seeds about 0.5–1 cm deep and space them 10–15 cm apart.

Water gently to keep the soil moist during germination and early growth.

How to Grow

Choy sum prefers full sun but tolerates light shade, especially in warmer climates.

Maintain consistent moisture, mulch to retain soil water, and thin seedlings to allow airflow.

Harvest leaves as needed to encourage continued growth.

Tips

Sow in cool seasons (spring or fall) for best results.

Harvest before plants bolt for tender stems and leaves.

Edible flowers add color and nutrition to dishes.
