Growing tips

At the end of October, cut back the green foliage to about 3 cm, so that the red heads can form the following spring. To speed up, cover the plants with brushwood. From July - August, sow flat in rows with 25 - 30 cm spacing. Sow immediately to 15 cm final spacing, because radicchio is difficult to transplant. The soil should be slightly sandy.
