I'm so curious about this vegetable, and would love to hear more! (I now have seeds from your for next time, but I did plant some from Johnny's late October also. They're smaller than yours in my probably colder garden in Dallas, TX.) I would love to understand more about the different varieties in your shop -there are so many kinds! And I'm not sure what the number after them means -is it the number of days? For example Yu Choy Sum 70s, Yu Choy Sum 120s, etc. Crossing my fingers that you'll make more Yu Choy videos :)
Google to the rescue... Choy sum is a leafy vegetable commonly used in Chinese cuisine. It is a member of the genus Brassica of the mustard family, Brassicaceae. Choy sum is a transliteration of the Cantonese name, which can be literally translated as "heart of the vegetable". It is also known as Chinese flowering cabbage. I love mustard greens. I'll bet it would make a great fermented green. Send price information. I'll bet it would grow very well hydroponically, especially in December.
i wish i had a tiller to breakup my hard soil i will order some yu choy seeds from you do u think i can grow them in containers? last time i tried to grow mustard cabbages the bugs n white flies got to them
The soil is screaming out "OUCH!" after you killed it with the tiller! I'm surprised you don't use Permacultue methods and "No Dig" gardening methods. The soil is alive and full of good bacteria to help plants grow. Watch "Charles Dowding's" channel on TH-cam. He has side by side gardens where he tilled one and left the soil in the other alone and planted the same crops as the first garden. You can see for yourself how well the plants did in the tilled versus the non-tilled /left alone (the way Nature does it) gardens.
You beat me too it!! That soil looks pretty good already so no need to till it. I did start out my beds by turning over the really heavy clay, picking out all the rocks, adding gypsum, compost and doing this about 3-4 time and then no more - and I have great soil and everything is growing really well. Just adding compost on top, no hard work!! This is an AMAZING garden so they obviously know what they're doing but gosh, anything that would mean less hard work is worth considering and perhaps just trying on a couple of beds!!
There are areas in my garden that when left alone become way to bacteria filled! Might be a zone or geological thing as well, the bugs in the ground when I was in the south pacific definitely did not deserve protection lol

Excellent video. What variety are you planting ? I'm in zone 5b, I believe, Detroit area I could plant them in the spring.
What kind of vegetable is yu choi sum?
they need to do an educational series on these :) I'd be in to watch them ALL :)
Usually available at Chinese restaurants, if you would like to try it. I LOVE it !!!
She has an old video explaining. It's eaten for the flowering stem which is sweet and tender.

很想知道你的滴灌系统是怎么安装的。我看过你以前安装滴灌的视频，所以我也安装了和你一样的滴灌，但不知道为什么我的滴灌水压不足，水喷不出来，只是滴的，我是两个菜床安装一个控制器，我的菜床只有你的菜床一半大。
