How to Grow & Harvest Kohlrabi (source) |
Grow Kohlrabi in loose, average soil. Direct-sow your seeds 4 to 6 weeks before the last frost in your growing zone; about ¼ inch deep, and 10 seeds per foot. You can start your seedlings indoors 6 to 8 weeks before the last frost as well. Transplant your seedlings when they are about 4 inches tall. Thin to 5 inches apart in rows of 1 foot apart.
