Planting and Care Instructions (From this Label)
Sow in rows as early as the ground can be worked. After planting, press down, covering with soil firmly. It performs best in full sun and well-drained soil. When the tops are about 6 inches tall, pull the plants until the roots are 4 inches apart. Harvest when the roots are 3 inches in diameter.
