Large plants form delicious white heads that are used fresh in salads, on relish trays, or cooked.
SOWING…For early crop, start seed indoors 6 to 8 weeks before last frost date. For later crop, plant directly outdoors in late Spring or early Summer. Space seeds 2 inches apart in rows spaced 2 to 2 ½ feet apart. Cover with ⅛ inch of fine soil, well pressed down.
THINNING…When plants are 3 to 4 inches tall, thin or transplant 2 to 2 ½ feet apart.
GERMINATION…Germinates in 7 to 14 days depending on soil and weather conditions.
REMARKS…When the heads are formed and hard they should be blanched by drawing leaves together and tying.
