Bok ChoyBrassica rapa

Joi Choi is a hybrid white-stemmed pak choi grown for its uniform, compact heads and vigorous, cold-tolerant habit, suited to both field and hydroponic production.

Variety details

Distinguishing Traits

Joi Choi is a white-stemmed pak choi, a hybrid that produces highly uniform heads in size, shape, and maturity. It is a vigorous grower, forming large plants with compact, dense heads built from fleshy white stems and dark-green leaves. Those stalks are thick, sweet, mild, and juicy, giving the plant a delicate flavour beneath its dark foliage.

Uses

Because its heads mature so uniformly in size and shape, a planting of Joi Choi can be harvested in a single pass rather than picked over selectively as individual heads reach size.

Performance

Joi Choi can be sown in cool soil and grows to about 45cm tall. The mature plant is somewhat cold-hardy, which allows a second sowing in late summer for fall and winter harvests. It is suited to year-round production in both field and hydroponic systems.
