- Kerry L.Rated 5 out of 5 stars5/12/26Year after year!
Year 3, 6B container amateur here again! Of all the seeds I have tried , every kind, every brand these NEVER let me down - not kidding I don’t think one seed has failed nor one seedling not grown! There are some Baby BC’s in here as well, occasionally I’ll sneak a baby leaf or two to bulk up a salad but mostly they get stir fried! If you don’t know what you’re doing start here! 😂

- Elizabeth D.CA, United StatesVerified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars10/26/25So impressed with this Bok Choy!
This was my first time growing bok choy. I planted two squares in my square foot bed and I ended up with 8 amazing plants. We did the "cut and come again" method and had bok choy all summer long. So easy! I can't wait to grow more next spring.
