Chinese cabbage is a less known vegetable, not only in Transylvania, but all over our country, although it appears more and more often in the markets. In the present research, which took place in 2010 from September to December, the behavior of Chinese cabbage in Transylvanian area specific conditions was studied, in order to establish optimal planting period in autumn cultures.
