Bolting

Bolting salad plants
Quite a few of the salad plants in bed ten are bolting. At the front in the picture, there is a purple choi sum with a yellow flower. Behind it is a rocket plant, which has flower buds forming before a decent amount of leaf has grown. On the other side of the red and green mixed rows, the first two pak choi also seem to be bolting. This is disappointing, as they'll not put much effort into growing leaves now. I wonder if the lack of sunlight over the last month has something to do with it.
