Hi all, a quick question for you.

I bought some Pak Choi plants from a nursery the other week to fill some gaps.

A couple have started to flower - I assume this is called bolting.  Is it still possible to eat the leaves or should I just chuck them?

you try, if you like, leaves tend to go tough, otherwise, they are not toxic or something. :wink:

They grow so fast from seed, and also bolt really fast after a couple of days of hot weather, so I'd say for future rather buy a packet of seeds and throw a few in a pot every other week. I've been sowing and picking them for a couple of months in pots, and even with regular watering and picking they start flowering and going tough v. quickly. Have the same problem with rocket, me.
