Germination Temperature: Optimum soil temperatures 60-75ºF.

Sowing Indoors: Start 10-12 weeks before the last frost. Soaking seeds overnight aids germination. Keep soil moist and temperatures at 70-75ºF. Liquid fertilize seedlings every 7-10 days. Transplant after last frost 8-12” apart.

Harvest: Stalks over 8-10”, from the outside first. Harvest entire plant late summer through the fall.

Tips: Tango Celery needs fertile soil and consistent moisture throughout the entire season for optimum growth. Add compost to the planting area and fertilize regularly, mulch, and keep moist.
