Special Directions For Short Season Climates

SOWING: Sow directly into the garden from earliest spring as soon as the soil is workable. Plant seed in a trench 4 to 6 inches deep, 2 inches apart and cover with 1 inch of fine soil firmed down. As plants become established fill in trench gradually.

THINNING AND SPACING: When seedlings are about 2 inches high thin to 4 inches apart. Space rows 18 inches apart, or sow in wide rows 4 inches apart in all directions.

GERMINATION: 10 to 20 days depending upon soil warmth. For quicker germination soak seeds overnight prior to planting.

Ed's Special Advice

When possible plant rows in a north south direction for best sun exposure and good air circulation. Plants grow best in a sunny location with rich fertile soil kept fairly moist during the cooler part of the spring growing season. Keep flowers picked to ensure flowering for the longest possible time.
