Growing Information:

Italian Dandelion

CULTURE: Start like lettuce by direct seeding or transplanting. Suitable for growing anytime during the season. For full-size bunches, space 6-8" apart and clip leaves at any stage but especially when young, less than 10" tall. For salad mix, direct seed thickly (see rate below). Unharvested plants will eventually make a flower stalk with the characteristic blue chicory flowers. The flavor is bitter, with background sweetness. DAYS TO MATURITY: From direct seeding; subtract 10-14 days if transplanting. AVG. DIRECT SEEDING RATE: For single heads 1,750'/oz., 1 Lb./acre at 12 seeds/ft. in rows 18" apart. For salad mix (harvest at 4-5 wks.) sow in 2-4" wide bands, 4 seeds/in., avg. rate 285'/oz., 4,600'/lb. TRANSPLANTS: Avg. 12,600 plants/oz. SEED SPECS: SEEDS/OZ: 21,000. MINI: 0.5 gm. (avg. 350 seeds, direct seeds 25')
