Care and Harvest

🌡️ Temperature: Prefers cooler temperatures (60-80°F), and will bolt in higher temperatures.

✂️ Pruning: Check the roots monthly and trim any that are brown or extending past the yPod.

🔎 Plant health: Aphids are a common pest, but you can use our prevention tricks to keep pests at bay!

🌱Harvesting: For ongoing harvest, snip the outer leaves just above the base of the plant once they reach 5 inches tall to let the inner leaves continue to grow. Leave 1/3 of the plant if you want it to keep growing. To harvest the head all at once, wait until it reaches 6-8 inches tall, then harvest from the base.
