Growing Instructions

• When to Plant: Direct sow in late summer for a fall harvest. Avoid spring sowing, which causes early bolting.
• Soil: Loose, fertile soil free of stones; heavy, compacted soil causes misshapen roots.
• Sunlight: Full sun to partial shade.
• Watering: Keep soil evenly moist; irregular watering leads to pithy, hot roots.
• Spacing: Sow 1/2 in deep, 2 in apart in rows 18 in apart. Thin to 4 in apart.
• Germination: 3–7 days.
• Harvest: Pull roots when 4–6 in long and firm, about 57 days after sowing. Do not leave roots in the ground once mature.
• Tips: Sow successively a few weeks apart for a longer harvest window. The dark-green tops are spineless, making harvest comfortable.
