Growing Tips

1. Planting: Direct sow seeds outdoors in early spring or late summer. Alternatively, start seeds indoors 4–6 weeks before the last frost date. Space seeds 1 inch apart and cover lightly with soil.
2. Watering: Water regularly, especially in warmer months, to maintain even moisture. Avoid letting the soil dry out completely.
3. Fertilization: Use a balanced, slow-release organic fertilizer to support steady growth and vibrant leaf color.
4. Harvesting: Harvest individual leaves for baby greens or wait for mature heads to form. Pick leaves from the outside of the plant, allowing the inner leaves to continue growing.
