Fatty Seeds – Chinese Cabbage
Chinese Cabbage is a popular leafy vegetable known for its tender green leaves, crisp stems and mild, slightly sweet flavour. Commonly used in stir-fries, soups, steamboats and steamed dishes, it is a nutritious addition to everyday meals. Suitable for growing in pots or garden beds, Chinese Cabbage is a versatile choice for home vegetable gardens.
Planting Guidelines:
-
Sow the seeds directly into well-draining, nutrient-rich soil, approximately 0.5–1cm deep. Space the plants 20–30cm apart, adjusting the spacing based on the mature size of the variety.
-
Seeds typically germinate within 3–7 days, and the plants may be ready for harvesting in approximately 30–75 days, depending on the variety. Harvest when the leaves and stems are well-developed and tender. Heading varieties should be harvested once the heads are firm and sufficiently mature.
-
Chinese Cabbage grows best in full to partial sunlight. In Singapore's warm climate, morning sunlight with afternoon shade can help reduce heat stress. Water regularly to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Ensure good drainage and adequate airflow to promote healthy growth.
