Can I plant bok choy in autumn?

Bok choy and its relations grow well anywhere in the country, but bear in mind they are cold-weather vegetables growing best from autumn to early spring. Avoid summer heat, as the plants can bolt into flower and seed.

When should you start planting in the fall?

Get started early.

Some fast growing fall crops like lettuce and radishes can be planted into late September, but many desirable fall crops like broccoli and carrots need several months of prime-growing conditions to mature before frost and low light levels set in. When in doubt, plant your fall crops a little early.
