Chinese cabbage seeds — crisp napa & pak choi for stir-fries and slaw

Chinese cabbage covers the crunchy, mild brassicas of East Asian cooking — from barrel-shaped napa (pe-tsai) for kimchi and slaw to upright pak choi for the wok. The classic heading napa types belong to Brassica pekinensis, and the whole group sits within our Asian greens range. New to growing brassicas? Our vegetable growing guide covers the basics.

These are fast, cool-season crops that bolt in summer heat — the calendar shows the best windows to sow.

Choosing the right type

Heading types form dense, pale barrels or cylinders for shredding raw, braising or fermenting into kimchi. Loose-leaf pak choi and tatsoi types are quicker, with crunchy white or green stems and tender leaves perfect for stir-fries and baby-leaf salads. Choose bolt-resistant varieties if sowing in spring.

Growing Chinese cabbage from seed

These brassicas grow fast but resent disturbance and long days, so the easiest route is to sow from midsummer for an autumn crop, when shortening days keep them from bolting. Sow direct or in modules, transplant carefully, keep the soil moist and rich, and protect from slugs and cabbage pests. Spring sowings are possible with bolt-resistant types under cover.

Pak choi can be cut young as baby leaves or grown on to full size — little and often gives a steady supply.

What is the difference between napa cabbage and pak choi?
Napa (pe-tsai) forms a dense, pale barrel or cylinder of crinkled leaves for shredding and kimchi, while pak choi is a loose, upright plant with thick white or green stems and tender leaves for stir-fries. Why does my Chinese cabbage bolt instead of forming a head?
Spring sowing, long days and heat all trigger bolting. The reliable approach is to sow from midsummer for an autumn crop, or use bolt-resistant varieties under cover. How do I protect Chinese cabbage from pests?
As brassicas they are prone to slugs, flea beetle and cabbage white caterpillars, so net the plants and watch for slugs, especially on tender young leaves. Can I harvest pak choi young?
Yes — sow thickly and cut baby leaves early, or thin and grow plants on to full size for stir-frying.
