Margaret, thanks for your input. Bok choy is usually Chinese cabbage. I'm not sure how bok choy would work out. Might work. Last week I pulled out one whole bok choy plant to fix for dinner. Jim was convinced that I should have pulled OFF the outer leaves, and left the plant to regenerate itself. I vetoed that emphatically. So we did it my way. This afternoon when I reached for a plant, Jim said No Fair! This time you have to try it MY way! Fine, I replied, then will you please go pull the stalks...? And he came in with a 5-gallon pail full of separate bok choy stalks. Does anyone of you know just which veggies do well when only the outer leaves are pulled...?
