SOWING: Sow directly into the garden in early spring as soon as the soil is workable. Sow seeds 2 inches apart and cover with 1 to 1 1/2 inches of fine soil firmed down. Sow successive plantings at 3-week intervals until early May. Sow late July for fall harvest.
SPACING: Leave 2 to 2 1/2 feet between rows. Can be grown in wide rows sowing seeds 2 inches apart in all directions.
GERMINATION: Completely dependent upon outdoor temperatures and soil warmth, usually one to two weeks.
Ed’s Special Advice: When possible, plant rows in a north-south direction for best sun exposure and good air circulation. Keep moist throughout the cooler parts of the growing season. Water by soaking soil; avoid spraying foliage.
SEED SAVING: Allow pods to dry completely before removing them from the plant. Store seeds in cool, dry place.
