Its most likely the weather. Pak Choi (and Spinach for that matter) often bolt for me this time of the year. Spring, Autumn and even Winter give the best result for me.

If you have a greenhouse, they do really well in pots over winter.  I use the builders buckets I grow the summer tomatoes in and just revitalise the compost a bit with fertiliser and some fresh compost mixed in.

They stay nice and clean as well as no mud splashes from rain  :)
