Radicchio

Sow seed 1/4 in deep and thin to 10–14 in; radicchio produces loose, green summer foliage before forming its characteristic red and white tight head as days shorten and temperatures fall. Cut back summer foliage to about 1 in when plants look tired and cool temperatures arrive; new heads will form from the crown within 3–4 weeks. Harvest compact heads by cutting at the base once they feel firm and the color is deep burgundy. Hard frost may damage outer leaves but the inner head often survives. Спосіб посадки: Посів у відкритий ґрунт Відстань між рослинами: 10–14 дюймів Висота: 8–12 дюймів Дні до схожості: 5–10 Температура ґрунту для схожості: 10–24°C
