Pak Choi, Yoshi F1

NEW PAK CHOI, Yoshi F1 (CN 1076) A new introduction into our wholehead green Pak Choi range. Yoshi F1 is a sister line to the very popular Goku F1. It has good early vigour yet great bolting tolerance means the harvest window is very wide. Yoshi F1 stays a little shorter than Goku which lends itself brillantly to flow wrapping. See page 24.

NEW PAK CHOI, Purple Rain F1 We already have an impressive range of red leaf Pak choi, so a new introduction in this sector has to be good to gain a place. Purple Rain has deep ruby red colour and a thick leaf which has proved to be resilient in both field and pack See page 23.

MICROGREENSMicrogreens can be produced from the seedlings of many species, usually harvested at cotyledons and first true leaf stage with production times from 7 to 25 days. Crop hygiene is critical and production systems have evolved using sterile mats. We supply untreated seed for Microgreens and routinely test seeds lots for human pathogens such as Salmonella, E.Coli & Listeria but responsbility for food safety remains with the grower.

ANNUAL MEADOW MIXES

These are blends of non native annual species carefully selected to provide an interesting and varied landscape with overlapping flowering patterns blooming from early summer to autumn. Meadow mixes can provide an economic alternative to traditional bedding, and have been developed for their low maintenance characteristics to give informal and natural displays suitable for both large and small areas.

Sites should be carefully prepared with soil cultivated into a fine tilth so that seed can be lightly covered after sowing. Seed rates of 3 – 6g/m2 are recommended, and seed can be mixed with sand or vermiculite to aid even distribution. Irrigation is helpful for plant establishment, and some weeding is usually necessary.
