I harvest my bok choy the same as my lettuce - by picking leaves as I need them - the bigger, outside leaves. As they get older I cut the middle growing section off to stop them bolting.africanaussiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16660727599623626163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1578069567609242972.post-77719356173208000562012-04-30T21:20:17.384+10:002012-04-30T21:20:17.384+10:00Lots of great info!

I usually add some to the soil before planting but I think I'll try some foliar feeding as well. See if I can get results as good as yours.Roslynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04940119240313980400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1578069567609242972.post-9385066895074457342012-04-30T13:59:03.169+10:002012-04-30T13:59:03.169+10:00You obviously made the right choice as everything ...You obviously made the right choice as everything is looking ultra healthy. <br />I am not sure if I asked you this already but do you pull of your Bok Choy leaves as you need them or do you pull out the whole plant, I only have 2 plants and was hoping to get as much out of them as possible...Maureenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03260642250519868482noreply@blogger.com
