Seeds germinate in 14-30 days. Keep soil surface moist during the germination period. Thin plants to 1-3" apart, depending on desired root size. Control weeds with frequent shallow cultivation.
Harvesting:
Flavour improves after first frost. Dig out with carefully to keep roots intact. Pull out of ground before a hard frost. Will keep a few months when stored in cool temperatures.
