Growing Tips
-
Direct sow or transplant: Start seeds indoors 4 to 6 weeks before the last frost date, or direct sow in the garden once soil temperatures reach at least 45 degrees F.
-
Planting depth: Sow seeds 1/4 to 1/2 inch deep.
-
Spacing: Thin or transplant seedlings to 18 to 24 inches apart in rows 24 to 36 inches apart.
-
Sunlight: Full sun to partial shade. At least 6 hours of direct sun per day produces the best leaf growth.
-
Watering: Keep soil consistently moist, especially during dry spells.
-
Harvest: Begin harvesting outer leaves once plants are established, typically 60 to 80 days from transplant. Picking outer leaves encourages continued growth.
