Planting Method Direct sowing is preferred. Sow seeds into loose, fertile, well-draining soil, cover lightly with 0.8 to 1 cm fine soil. Keep soil evenly moist for germination, which usually takes 6 to 10 days. The optimal growing temperature is 15°C to 22°C. A location with full sun of 6 hours daily works best. Thin seedlings and leave 30-40cm spacing between plants. Water consistently, avoid drought or waterlogging. Add nitrogen-rich fertilizer during leaf growing stage, and supplement potassium fertilizer when heads start to form. Harvest when cabbage heads become firm and fully compact.
Suitable Planting Regions New Tianjin Green Chinese Cabbage fits most temperate and subtropical regions. It thrives in cool autumn weather. In northern zones, sow in mid-to-late summer for autumn harvest. In mild southern areas, sow in early autumn. High temperature in summer will affect head formation and easily trigger pests.
