Meet your green friend.

Konan kohlrabi has a pale green swollen stem and upright leaves.

A space where it can thrive

Grow as a cultivated garden crop in a bed or suitably sized container. The illustrated nursery pot is a presentation, not a recommendation for the mature plant’s root space.

Ask about availability

Availability, size, pot and price will be confirmed in store. Pictures illustrate the plant type.

Your care routine

Light

Full sun in an open position.

Watering

Water evenly; long dry periods followed by heavy watering can spoil stem quality.

Soil & drainage

Fertile, well-drained soil that supports uninterrupted growth.

Temperature

Plan sowing for the crop’s preferred season. Protect young plants and containers from severe frost; local conditions affect timing.

Planting

Sow or transplant in cool weather and thin so the above-ground stems can expand.

Harvest

Cut the swollen stem while young and tender, commonly around 5–8 cm across for smaller types.

Through the seasons

Succession sow for tender stems rather than allowing every plant to become oversized and woody.

When your plant needs help

  • Unlike many small kohlrabis, this type can remain tender at larger sizes, up to about 15 cm; keep moisture uninterrupted.

Pets & little ones

This guide covers a cultivated garden crop. Confirm the identity and the edible part before harvesting; wash produce and keep unverified plants away from children and pets.
