How to Sow and Plant

Direct sow seeds in well‑prepared soil after frost danger passes in spring or in late summer to autumn. Sow at about ¼ in depth and keep soil evenly moist. Thin seedlings to 6–8 in (15–20 cm) spacing for healthy growth.

How to Grow

Grow in full sun to light shade in cool weather. Maintain consistent moisture without waterlogging. Mulch lightly to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Harvest leaves individually as they grow or cut whole rosettes at soil level when mature.

Tips

Succession sow every 2–3 weeks to extend harvests. Partial shade can help in warmer climates. Avoid hot weather to prevent bolting and bitterness.
