F1 Quick Star
Kohl Rabi F1 Quickstar
A fast-growing, flavour-packed variety that’s as beautiful as it is tasty! Quickstar produces smooth, pale green bulbs with dark green leaves and a wonderfully juicy, crisp texture — a bit like a water chestnut with a mild, sweet turnip flavour. Early to mature and slow to bolt, it’s the perfect crop for gardeners who love fresh, crunchy vegetables straight from the soil.
Harvest
May to September.
Growing Instructions
-
Soil: Plant into fertile, well-drained, humus-rich soil.
-
Spacing: Space plants 45cm apart to allow for strong bulb formation.
-
Watering: Keep well watered until established and during dry weather to maintain tenderness.
-
Care: Keep rows free from weeds and protect from cabbage white butterflies with fine mesh netting.
Top Tips
-
Perfect Size: Harvest when bulbs reach tennis-ball size — smaller bulbs are sweeter and more tender.
-
Quick Harvest: Don’t let them overgrow — larger bulbs can become woody.
-
Succession Sowing: Plant every few weeks for a steady supply of fresh, crisp kohl rabi all summer long.
-
Serving Suggestion: Peel and eat raw in salads, slice for dipping, or roast for a sweet, nutty side dish.
