Seed Depth: Surface to 1/8"

Seed Spacing: A group of 5 seeds every 6"

Row Spacing: 6"

Thinning: When 1/2" tall, thin to 1 every 6"

When to sow outside: RECOMMENDED. 2 to 4 weeks before average last frost, and successive sowings every 3 weeks until 2 weeks before the first fall frost. In USDA zone 8 or warmer, also sow in fall for winter harvest.

When to start inside: Anytime for fresh mesclun year-round! Grow on a sunny windowsill or under grow lights.

Harvesting: Harvest individual leaves at 2" - 4" tall for a continual supply. If you wish to harvest as heads, cut off at 2" above ground level as soon as possible after head forms; new leaves will grow from the center. The earlier the harvest, the more tender the crop.
