How do I sow fennel seeds?
- Start seeds indoors about a month before the last frost, planting them in peat pots 1/4″ deep; keep the temperature around 65-75 degrees F for best germination.
- Fennel can also be directly sown as soon as the soil temperature reaches 65 degrees F.
- Space the seedlings or seeds about 12″ apart in fertile, well drained soil and full sun.
- Transplant the seedlings carefully, since shock may cause them to bolt.
- Fennel must be planted away from other garden plants, since it tends to have a negative effect on their growth.
- Keep the plants consistently moist. A layer of mulch will help conserve moisture, while controlling weeds and blanching the tender fennel bulb.
