About Winner
Winner is a hybrid kohlrabi with pale green, semi-globe bulbs and sweet, crisp flesh. It runs earlier than giant storage types but is notably slow to become woody for its size class.
Growing Winner Kohlrabi
It is forgiving if harvest timing is not exact, but the bulbs are still best while smooth and tender, around 3 to 4 inches across. Grow it in cool weather with rapid, uninterrupted growth, because stress can make any kohlrabi tougher.
