Hi. I live in ballarat and as most people know it can get rather cold. I have four lop eared rabbits who just love bok choy. They are costing me a fortune. Lucky I love them. Is it possible to grow bok choy here. If so when would I plant them. Obviously I'm not a gardener but would like to have a go. Thanku karen.

I also live in Ballarat and gave grown bok choy almost year round. It produced well until about May last year, and I've been looking for some more for the garden since the beginning of spring but haven't seen much around locally. It does tend to bolt quickly during late summer but I find if I pick the leaves regularly it slows down a bit. Does tend to be very thirsty, too.
