- Carol L.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars7/7/26First Time Grower
My first bok choy is almost ready to harvest, and I am thrilled. (The heads I thinned out were delicious.)
The seed was high quality. I had nearly total germination. I have a patio garden, and I am growing my bok choy in a 24 inch wide pot under row cover to minimize insect damage.
