Pakchi cultivation report

Bliss that you can eat Pak Chi (Coriander) dishes every day.

Sawaddy Car! Is it beard? I’m a Pakchi fairy, Ploy. Hi, recently, Chot, I’m Ureshii that everyone in Japan remembers their name. I’m also called Pak Chi, Coriander or Shang Tsai. It’s a flavor that is indispensable for ethnic foods, but it’s pretty easy to grow it with your home and your elder!

Seed planting
Ploy
胡椒のような、このままゴリゴリと粉末状にしてクリームパスタにかけたくなるような形だよ。実際、コリアンダーシードといって調味料としても使えるネ。あ、でも今回はパクチーを育ててね。ポイントは発芽までは水分タップリが大事だヨ！　水栽培くらいの勢いで水をあげてちょうだい。発芽まではプランターで水を毎日やるといいよきっと。

Germination!
Ploy
I often get consultation that they don’t germinate anyway. Anyway, it’s water. Water water water! If you do your best until it germinates, it will grow like this, and it will grow like a leopard.

The true leaves have come out!
Ploy
If Futaba comes out, it’s already here. This in the second week. The unique jagged type of true leaves come out!　
6/9
The true leaves begin to spring!
Ploy
Chile, chilly, chilly lily, one piece and one cute pacchi leaf come out as if the sparkler starts to glow.
6/15
Crispy rise!
Ploy
Maybe you started storing nutrients when 4 or 5 leaves came out, the stems became thicker and more and more new leaves came out from the center!　
6/22
The Pakchi is ready!
Ploy
That’s why just about a month after planting the seeds. It grows to about 20 cm to the tip of the leaf, and it’s sized like a punk! And, as it grows up and down, people who want to eat the stalks will be the best time to eat.
6/30
Leaves spring out one after another!
Ploy
From here on, the speed of growth will go up! Because come one after another leaves gushed endlessly from the center. Come on, come on tonight, it’s punky food!
7/7
Leaf generation culminates
Ploy
The leaves that spring up from the center of the plant to “Bois” and Boryumi are at their peak during 1-2 months. The stalks are gradually getting longer and the amount of leaves that can be taken at one time is increasing.
7/14
Stems begin to grow thicker
Ploy
I’ll follow up and my body will grow. At first, it looked like a cluster of leaves, but after about two months, the roots and stems became thicker, and it became more like a space plant!
7/21
Stems begin to protrude thicker
Ploy
Gradually, the leaves begin to reflect the growth of the stem. The leaves and stems start to get harder. At this time, the stem should be curry spicy rather than raw.
7/28
A stem with flowers appears!
Ploy
Come on! Actually here is a big change for me! Thick stems with leaves that are clearly different from the leaves until now are starting to grow as “hyon”. These leaves do not emit the scent of that punk, they grow only on stems that were born with a special purpose. What is it for …

Bud
Ploy
So flowers! Pakchi is a small, white flower.
8/4
Flowering
Ploy
The beginning of Act 2 of Pak Chi. Oh, white flowers spreading like ripples. I want you to see the gamelan performances in the background. By the way, if this “flower tree” stands, it will devote its energy to letting the flowers blossom, so that the edible fragrant leaves can hardly be harvested anymore. It is a beautiful flower, but if you want to harvest pacchie for a long time, if you pull out this stem, you can harvest it for a long time.
8/12
Full bloom!
Ploy
Oh! Sway! Beautiful, simple and cute flowers, right? And bees are already on the upper right!
8/25
Pollination / fruit
Ploy
Soon the flowers will turn into themselves. Oh! This is a divine landscape because countless flowers are already blooming and fruit can be produced by the number of flowers. It feels grateful like a spiral hair (Buddha’s hair).
9/1
Begins to wither
Ploy
Pakchi, who had a fruit as if God had dwelled, eventually withered and recirculated to the next generation.
9/8
Wither
Ploy
Early yo! It changes from a punky to a white-flowered tree, and a screw-shaped one, just like an insect, between just three months.
9/14
Seed harvest
Ploy
Just four months after planting the seeds. I returned to the original seed. Reincarnation Reincarnation. And in the fall, we plant new seeds.

Point! pakchi cultivation

It is a special type of seed that has a little trick to germinate, but germinates well when given enough water. The leaves and stems are soft and suitable for raw eating when they grow around 20㎝. After growing to a certain degree, the special plants that give blossoms grow and leaves no leaves suitable for edible use, so if you want to harvest for a long time, pick the “flower branch”.
