Planning notes

  • Corralling
  • Pinching

Medium producer. A planting stays productive across a more limited window, so closer succession timing helps keep supply steady.

  • Pinching is commonly used in this production system.
  • Corralling for structural support is commonly used.
  • First-production timing varies by cultivar and growing system, so enter the maturity value from your seed supplier to estimate production.
