Direct sowseveral times during the four to six weeks after the last frost datefor a crop to mature starting in about 8 weeks. Sow again after mid-July to early August for fall and winter crops. Planting between mid-May and mid-July causes kohlrabi to mature in hot weather, resulting in inferior bulbs. In short season areas, start kohlrabi indoors in cell trays about 4 weeks before the last frost date and transplant out once day time temperatures are steadily above 10C (50F). Optimal soil temperature for germination: 10-30C (50-85F). Seeds should germinate in 7-10 days.

Sow seeds 5mm () deep with plants spaced 10-15cm (4-6) apart in rows 30-45cm (12-18) apart.

Harvest: Spring-sown kohlrabi will get larger than tennis balls in fair soil, but if you pick them when they are still less than 5-8cm (2-3) in diameter they will be sweet and tender. Fall-grown kohlrabi can grow larger yet stay tender. Kohlrabi is frost-hardy, and may last well beyond Christmas in mild winter areas.
