Gardening Know How Questions & Answers - https://questions.gardeningknowhow.comMy cabbage and bok-choy plants went to a long stem and flowers at the end of stem right away. I would think they have gone to seeding. Do I cut these stems off down at the bottom and discard or leave them on the plant? If I cut them off, will the plants resume producing?

If your cabbage and bok choy have flowers, then they have bolted to seed and are passed their prime. They like to grow in cool weather.
