Chinese Broccoli Plant Spacing. Green leaf vegetable with wrinkled green leaves and thick stems. Fall broccoli has specific spacing requirements.
Space plants 6 inches apart. Yield 12 buds per plant after the first year. Seedlings should be thinned to one plant every 8 inches once they reach 3 inches tall.
When your plant spacing is very close, you leave very little room for weeds to grow.
Kohlrabi and chinese cabbage are exceptions in the cole crop family; It grows best in cool temperatures. Before lifting the plants, water them well and water well again after transplanting. Plant the gai lan seed on the soil surface, spacing the seeds 4 inches apart in rows set 24 inches apart.
