Chinese cabbage plants #872900

Asked June 13, 2024, 7:34 AM EDT

I bought Chinese cabbage plants at a greenhouse and planted them in my raised bed. When can I begin using them for salad?? Do I cut the leaves just above the soil?

Pennington County Minnesota

Expert Response

As soon as the outer leaves are large enough to eat you can harvest them. Cut or break off the full leaf. The plant will continue to grow from the center.

Thanks for the question.
