Whether grown in open fields or greenhouses, kohlrabi is a robust and fast-growing vegetable that performs well in different climates. Its ability to thrive in both spring and autumn makes it an excellent choice for growers looking for a consistent and reliable harvest.
Kohlrabi is a hardy and fast-growing plant that requires minimal maintenance while delivering high yields. It is less prone to pests than other brassicas, grows quickly, and is adaptable to various climates. Plus, its unique taste and texture make it increasingly popular in modern cuisine.
Kohlrabi grows best in cooler temperatures. It can be planted in early spring for a summer harvest or in late summer for an autumn crop. The plant can even withstand light frosts, making it a great option for extended growing seasons.
Most kohlrabi varieties are ready for harvest within 45 to 60 days. Some fast-maturing types can even be harvested in just 40 days, making them ideal for growers looking for a quick turnaround.
Yes, kohlrabi is quite adaptable, but it thrives best in well-drained, nutrient-rich soil with a neutral pH. Adding compost or organic matter can help improve growth and ensure a healthy, flavorful crop.
The best time to harvest is when the bulb reaches about 7–10 cm in diameter. If left too long, the texture may become woody and tough. Young kohlrabi is more tender and flavorful.
Kohlrabi can be stored in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. To keep it fresh longer, remove the leaves and store them separately. The bulb can also be frozen after peeling and blanching.
