Konan Hybrid Kohlrabi F1

Konan Kohlrabi is a hybrid variety that produces beautiful, globe-shaped bulbs on upright plants. This variety was chosen as an All-America Selection in 2016 for it's consistently-round, almost perfect bulbs. Konan plants have an upright growth habit that resists insect damage and makes it a great option for growing in tight spaces. Konan Kohlrabi produces pale-green bulbs that are best harvested between 4-6" in diameter. The bulbs have a crisp texture and a delicious flavor that resembles a cross between a turnip and a cabbage. In addition to the delicious bulbs, the greens are great to eat as well!

Kohlrabi bulbs grow above the soil and have a pale green exterior with a white flesh. The texture is crunchy and is excellent prepared raw as a slaw or an addition to salads. Shred or slice the bulbs and mix with balsamic vinegar, olive oil, salt and pepper for a quick, delicious treat. Kohlrabi bulbs can be harvested at about 3" in diameter, or about the size of a tennis ball. They can also be allowed to reach larger sizes for heavier harvests. Monitor excess moisture, as this can cause bulbs to split. Bulbs should be peeled before eating as the outside is tough and not palatable.
