Kohlrabi Purple Delicacy Vegetable Seeds Packet
Kohlrabi Purple Delicacy seeds for the kitchen garden that intends to actually produce kohlrabi purple delicacy this year. Kohlrabi looks like a vegetable that arrived from the future and has been politely pretending to fit in ever since.
Kohlrabi Purple Delicacy is purple-skinned kohlrabi with crisp, sweet white flesh that is excellent raw or cooked. Each packet is hermetically vacuum-sealed -- removing the oxygen that causes standard paper seed packets to lose germination viability within approximately one year. State law requires a 3-year viability label on sealed packaging. NASA research on hermetic seed storage indicates viability of up to 10 years under proper conditions. Every packet is non-GMO and germination-tested at independent third-party labs before it earns its Japanese woodblock print artwork.
How to Grow Kohlrabi Purple Delicacy from Seed
Sowing and Germination
Direct sow 1cm deep, 15cm apart. Sow every 3 weeks for continuous harvest. Best in cool seasons.
Care and Harvest
Harvest when bulb reaches 5-8cm. Smaller is more tender. 45-55 days.
Why Vacuum-Sealed Seeds Last Longer
Standard paper seed packets are permeable to oxygen and moisture -- the two primary causes of seed degradation. Most paper-packaged seeds begin losing germination viability after approximately one year, contributing to significant garden-industry waste: packets purchased, not planted, expired, discarded. Shido Seeds are hermetically vacuum-sealed. The packet does not expire quietly in a drawer. It waits.
About the Packaging
Every Shido seed packet is illustrated in the style of Japanese 1910s woodblock printing -- designed and drawn in-house by Chive, the Toronto ceramics studio that has been exhibiting at the Chelsea Flower Show in London every year and does not, as a matter of principle, sell to big-box retailers. Customers collect the packets as a series. This was not the original plan.
