They will thrive in the Spring 
or Fall but will not do well 
during the heat of Summer. 
Seeds may be sown as early 
as the ground is workable 
about April | with successive 
sowings until May 15. The 
Fall crop should be sown in 
August. Any reasonably good 
garden soil will suffice. 
Sow in rows, |% feet apart 
and cover the seed with not 
over 14 inch of soil. When 
the plants are about 3 inches 
high, thin them out to stand 
3 inches apart. These tender 
vitamin-rich plants should 
not be discarded, they 
make delicious greens.
