Planting Instructions:

Seed Preparation: No specific preparation is required, but soaking seeds in water for 12-24 hours before planting can help speed up germination.

Sowing:

Indoors: Start seeds indoors 10-12 weeks before the last expected frost. Sow seeds thinly on the surface of seed-starting mix and lightly cover with a thin layer of soil or vermiculite. Keep the soil moist and maintain a temperature of around 70-75°F.
Outdoors: Sow seeds directly into the garden after the danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed.

Germination:

Germination typically occurs within 14-21 days under optimal conditions. Maintain consistent moisture and avoid letting the soil dry out.

Transplanting:

Indoors to Outdoors: When seedlings are about 2 inches tall and have at least two true leaves, harden them off by gradually exposing them to outdoor conditions over a period of 7-10 days. Transplant them to the garden, spacing them 8-10 inches apart in rows 18-24 inches apart.

Care and Maintenance:

Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Celeriac requires regular watering to develop a good-sized root.
Weeding: Keep the area free of weeds to reduce competition for nutrients and water.
Mulching: Apply mulch around plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
Harvesting: Harvest celeriac when the roots reach 3-4 inches in diameter, usually 100-120 days after sowing. Lift the plants carefully to avoid damaging the roots. Trim off the leaves and store the roots in a cool, humid place.

Happy gardening!
