Introduction
Welcome to the electronic handbook for the production of CEA hydroponic pak
choi. This handbook is designed to be an introductory manual for the production
of Nutrient Film (NFT) grown CEA (Controlled Environment Agriculture), or greenhouse,
pak choi. More importantly, it is designed to be interactive. A few notes are in order about
the extent of our experience in pak choi production. The reader should bear
in mind that our experience is not unlimited; we therefore describe the extent
of that experience. This handbook describes the procedures developed in the
course of 23 trials at the Kenneth Post and Guterman Bioclimatic Laboratories
at Cornell University. The procedures were initially based on findings in literature,
our prior experience with leaf lettuce and spinach, and were modified as we
gained experience. We found pak choi to be an easy crop to grow.
