Excellent sweet flavour and crunchy texture makes Sparta a winner in the garden. Dark green ruffled, edible leaves are attractive atop the pale green globes. Bulbs are a bit flattened with shorter and more prostrate stems than the upright Konan. Fast to mature, kohlrabi can be planted multiple times to have a consistent supply late spring to fall. Covering seedlings with floating row cover protects your crop from flea beetles and other cabbage family pests.
| Latin Name |
Brassica oleracea var. gongylodes |
| Difficulty | Easy |
| Exposure |
Full sun |
| Sprouting | 7-10 days |
| Timing |
Direct sow several times during the four to six weeks after the last frost date for a crop to mature starting in about 8 weeks. Sow again after mid-July to early August for fall and winter crops. Planting between mid-May and mid-July causes kohlrabi to mature in hot weather, resulting in inferior bulbs. In short season areas, start kohlrabi indoors in cell trays about 4 weeks before the last frost date and transplant out once day time temperatures are steadily above 10°C (50°F). Optimal soil temperature for germination: 10-30°C (50-85°F). |
| Starting |
Sow seeds 5mm (¼”) deep with plants spaced 10-15cm (4-6″) apart in rows 30-45cm (12-18″) apart. |
| Growing |
Ideal pH: 6.0-6.8. Kohlrabi is a moderate to heavy feeder that does best in humus-rich soil amended with composted manure. Mix ¼-½ cup complete organic fertilizer into the soil under each plant. |
