Extended information:
Early maturity type
Plant is small, short growth period, shoots early, cabbage shoots are small, axillary bud sprouting force is weak, to harvest the main shoots, lower yield. More heat-resistant, sensitive to low temperatures, the temperature is a little low, it is easy to shoot early.
Medium maturity type
Plant medium, growth period is slightly longer, faster growth, axillary buds have a certain sprouting force, the main shoots, side shoots and harvesting, to the main shoots, the quality is better. Wide adaptability to temperature, heat resistance and early maturity species similar to the low temperature easy to shoot.
Late-maturing types
Larger plants, longer growing period, late shooting. Strong axillary bud sprouting, the main side of the shoots and harvesting, harvesting period is longer, higher yield of vegetable shoots. Not heat-resistant.
