Plant seed 1 4 1 2 inch deep, spaced 15 to 20 inches apart. Thin and eat the plants when they are a couple of inches tall. The crops need regular water as the drought will cause bolting. Cut whole heads at soil level when they are compact and firm. Complete the harvest before the arrival of freezing weather.
