Growing guide

Sowing

Plant seed outdoors as soon as danger of frost is past. Plant seeds in rows 12 to 18 inches apart, spacing seeds ½ inch apart and cover with ¼ inch fine soil, well pressed down.

Thinning

When plants are 2 to 4 inches tall, thin to 12 to 18 inches apart in the row.

Germination

Germinates in 7 to 14 days depending on soil and weather conditions.

Remarks

Late summer plantings yield a fine fall crop. Frequent cutting will encourage continuous growth and tender foliage. Pull plants in summer before they bolt to prevent self-sowing.
