Nice video, I grew some in the spring that were small. I'm doing more for this fall now and now I have some better tips about fertilizer!

Thank you for making a video specifically on kohlrabi. I did wish that you would show us how to cook it. I’m currently growing it, I planted it last Fall it nearly died 3 times, I don’t know it wouldn’t grow. Out of 3 plants, only one has a small bulb, but no matter, I am so proud of it. Because it took so long to grow, I will let it keep growing through this Fall.

People from Kashmir, India cannot live without Kohlrabi locally called Monj-Hakh. Monj for the bulb and Hakh for the leaves. It is eaten with leaves.

We Hungarians call it Karalabe, and we use it many ways.
But, my favourite is in Chicken soup.
Clear, Chicken soup.

@California Gardening, But it seem that you couldn't prevent the pestnfrom attacking the foliage of your Kohlrabis plants in the video, ha? There were plenty of holes.

Being from Central Europe kohlrabi is one of my favourite vegetables. The title of your video is 'how to grow large kohlrabi' however you didn't mention that the different cultivars differ greatly in size. I grow kossak which is a giant variety. I harvest this of kohlrabi when they get to 2kg in size (that's over 4 pounds!). I picked one recently which weighed 2.4kg. This variety does not go woody even when it reaches such sizes. Most varieties are smaller and will only get to half a pound or so in size before they become woody.
Leave you kossak kohlrabi in the beds for a longer period. For the extra month or so in the bed they will put on a lot more size.
In German kohlrabi means turnip cabbage - adequately named as you can say it's a combination of these two brassica plants.
I live in Australia where we are headed into our summer so I won't be planting any new kohlrabi until next year at the start of autumn or fall as you refer to it in the north America.
New year I'm going to try the variety Superschmelz which is a giant variety similar to kossak.
I have 10 kossak kohlrabi in the beds at the moment but I'm going to wait until they put on a bit more size - or until I need the space for summer crops.

Good information .Im one of the new subscriber

They grow by themselves, just water the plants, nothing else. When tennis ball size, done. Pull them up.

Can you do a video over your bell peppers? They looked amazing from the corner in the raised bed! Tropical storm Nicholas just destroyed our garden for the year 😭

Hi there. Asking a silly question, but I recently bought a few kohlrabi bulbs about 2 inches in diameter, and each has the nub where the main root used to be.

They're in the fridge right now, but I'm planning to bring them up to room temperature, take a very thin slice off at the root nub, and stick the bottoms in water while resting on the top of a suitable bottle.

I'll change the water daily, but will this method encourage rooting?

Would it help to add a little rooting compound powder to the water each time?

What kind of soil do I need to grow them once they've rooted? Acidic? Alkaline? Well draining?

I'm hopeful for growth, as there are new leaf stalks forming on the top of each bulb.
