How to Sow and Plant


Sow seeds ¼ inch deep outdoors in early spring or late summer. Space seeds 1 inch apart, rows 12–18 inches apart. For indoor sowing, start 4–6 weeks before the last frost and transplant seedlings when 2–3 true leaves appear.

How to Grow


Keep soil consistently moist, fertilize lightly every 2–3 weeks, and mulch to retain moisture. Thin plants to 6–8 inches apart for full growth. Provide partial shade in hot climates to prevent bolting.

Tips

Harvest baby leaves at 3–4 inches or mature heads before bolting.

Use cut-and-come-again method to enjoy continuous fresh harvests.
