I am now more motivated and encouraged to start my kitchen garden and I want to start with seasonings, patchoi and lettuce. I wanted so bad to get local content on social media on home gardening. Thanks so much for doing this.

    I agree with you on growing pakchoi. It grows quickly and I found it tastier in the home garden. I also regrow from the cut base. I had one that bolted so now I am waiting to harvest seeds.

    Hey, the bok choi grows like that when it's stressed for some reason. That process is called bolting, the plant is producing flowers and going to seed. Some reasons for the plant being stressed would be: too much heat, pest pressure, lack of nutrients, age. Do any of these sound like something you had with your bok choi before?
