Jammie F1 Hokdou pak choi

Description of the variety

Jammie F1 Hokdou Pak Choi (Brassica rapa subsp. pekinensis) is a cool-season biennial grown as an annual, developed through selective breeding for uniformity, disease resistance, and productivity. It forms dense, upright heads with smooth, slightly crinkled leaves. This cultivar is slow to bolt, making it especially suitable for regions with fluctuating temperatures. Even under hot and dry conditions, it wraps well and maintains its signature barrel shape, ensuring consistent quality and appearance. Rich in vitamins A, C, and K, as well as folate and fiber, it is a nutritious addition to many Asian dishes.

Planting Guidelines

Keep soil consistently moist during germination (5–10 days) and early growth.

Apply compost before planting and use balanced fertilizer every 3–4 weeks.

Thin seedlings to ensure proper airflow and head formation.

Monitor for pests like aphids and cabbage moths; use organic controls if needed.
