Growing tips

Needs abundant fertilization. The numerous roots aerate the soil, buried crop residues make it valuable for soil health. Plant out 4-6 weeks after emergence about 10-15 cm/3.9-5.9 in deep. Harden off beforehand if necessary. Mounding produces longer stems with higher white content. In case of very cold temperatures in winter, cover with a fleece. Cultivation interval: 3-4 years.
