Planning notes
- Corralling
- Landscape fabric
Cut-and-come-again. A planting keeps producing new stems over a relatively long harvest period when it is picked regularly, so successive plantings are usually spaced farther apart.
- Corralling for structural support is commonly used.
- Landscape fabric is commonly used for spacing and weed control.
- First-production timing varies by cultivar and growing system, so enter the maturity value from your seed supplier to estimate production.
