SOWING: Sow seed directly outdoors in early spring. Can also be sown mid to late summer for fall, winter, and spring use. Cover seed with 1/8 inch fine soil, firmed down.
SPACING & THINNING: Space rows at least 18 inches apart, thin to 12 inches apart in rows.
GERMINATION: 2 to 3 weeks depending upon soil and weather conditions. Keep soil moderately moist during germination.
Ed’s Special Advice: Endive benefits from well-cultivated enriched soil. The entire plant can be harvested at once, or the outer leaves can be used as needed. When plant nears maturity, outer leaves can be gathered up and tied loosely over center of plant for blanching. Keep well-watered during heat of summer. Protect from heavy rains in winter.
