Growing Tips, Tricks and FAQs
Growing Tips
Delicacy White kohlrabi is best grown in cool weather, thriving in temperatures between 45-80 F. It prefers well-drained, fertile soil with a pH of 6.0-6.8. Before planting, enrich the soil with compost or well-rotted manure to provide the necessary nutrients. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged to prevent the bulbs from becoming woody.
When to Grow
Direct sow in rich soil every 2-3 weeks from 2 weeks before the last spring frost to 2-4 weeks before the first autumn frost. This variety is hardy in USDA zones 3-9 and can tolerate light frosts, which can even enhance the flavor of the bulbs​.
How to Sow and Plant
Sow seeds 1/4 inch deep, spacing them 2-4 inches apart in rows 12-18 inches apart. Once seedlings emerge, thin them to about 6-8 inches apart to allow space for bulb development. For indoor starts, transplant seedlings when they have 3-4 true leaves, ensuring they are hardened off for a week or two to avoid transplant shock.
How to Grow
Ensure your kohlrabi gets full sun, 6-12 hours daily, and maintain consistent moisture to avoid tough, bitter bulbs. Fertilize lightly with a balanced, organic fertilizer or side-dress with compost at midseason. Mulching can help retain soil moisture and keep weeds down. Watch for common pests like cabbage loopers and aphids, and manage them using organic methods like insecticidal soap.
How to Save
- Like its cabbage cousin, kohlrabi is a biennial and must be overwintered to produce seeds.
- Kohlrabi is hardy down to 20 F. Those in areas with mild winters should have no issue keeping plants alive over winter.
- In cooler regions, kohlrabi must be dug up and overwintered in sand in the root cellar. Kohlrabi stored this way should not be allowed to dry up and may need light watering while in storage.
- Replant them after the last frost and allow them to go to seed.
- Pick the seed pods after they are thoroughly dried and place them in a cloth bag. You will need to use a hammer or step on the stubborn pods to free the seeds.
- Separate seeds from the chaff (leaf, pod, and stem trash) and store them in glass jars in the refrigerator.
FAQ
How long does it take for Delicacy White kohlrabi to mature?
Kohlrabi 'Delicacy White' typically matures within 65 days from planting. It’s important to harvest before the bulbs exceed 3 inches in diameter to avoid a woody texture.
What should I do if my Delicacy White kohlrabi bulbs are not forming properly?
Improper bulb formation can be due to several factors, including overcrowding, insufficient sunlight, or inconsistent watering. Ensure plants are spaced 6-8 inches apart, receive full sun, and maintain even soil moisture to encourage proper bulb development​.
What are good companion plants for kohlrabi?
Beets, bush beans, onions, and lettuce make good companions, but avoid planting with pole beans, strawberries, and tomatoes​.
