B.C. growers produce a variety of vegetables that are traditionally associated with regions outside of North America. Many of these vegetables are of Asian origin. These crops belong to a range of plant families, including cole crops, legumes and cucurbits. Most crops are short-season crops and are generally grown in small blocks.
Brassica crops grown include Sui choy (Chinese cabbage), Bok choy, Yow choy, Gai lan (Chinese broccoli), and Gai choy (mustard greens). Others include A-Choy (related to lettuce), She dow (snow pea) and Lo Bok (Asian radish).
Varieties
Refer to the sections on Cole Crops, Peas, Green Bunching Onions, Radishes, and Turnips in this guide for variety recommendations.
See your seed dealer for the most recent variety recommendations.
Fertilizer
Because these vegetables belong to many plant families, there are no specific fertilizer recommendations. Use the Vegetable Production Guide: Nutrient Management (PDF, 310KB) for general information on nutrient management, and take regular soil samples.
Seed treatment
For Leafy vegetables and brassica vegetables (crop group 5A): use seed treated with Apron XL LS to control Pythium damping off. Do not use for leafy greens grown in the greenhouse.
For brassica vegetables (Crop group 5-13) including Chinese and Napa cabbage; cucurbit vegetables (crop group 9) including Chinese waxgourd and edible gourd; cress, Chinese mustard cabbage, Chinese broccoli, and kohlrabi: use seed treated with Apron MAXX RTA to control damping off caused by Pythium spp., Fusarium spp. and Rhizoctonia spp.

There are a few fungicides registered for these crops (see table below). Cultural practices to reduce disease problems include:
Root rot
RootShield WP (Trichoderma harzianum Rifai strain KRL-AG2) is a biological fungicide for the suppression of Root Rot in greenhouse vegetable transplants. When applied to transplants, greenhouse planting mix or soil, the product grows into plant roots as they develop to protect roots against Pythium, Rhizoctonia and Fusarium.
RootShield WP is used in organics. It is OMRI-USA listed. OMRI-USA = Organic Materials Review Institute of USA. Check with your certification body before using in an organic operation.
