Frisee Endive Seeds - Green Curled Ruffec | Vegetable Seeds, NON-GMODetails:• Other Name(s): Curly Endive, Chicory• Botanical Name: Cichorium endivia• Flavor: Slightly bitter• Soil Preference: Moist, Well-Drained• Light Preference: Full Sun, Partial Shade• Temperature Preference: 60-65°F• Days to Germination: 4-15 Days when soil temp range between 45-68°F• Days to Maturity: 50-60 Days • Sow Method: Direct Sow, or Transplant• Planting Time: Spring, Fall• Seed Depth: 1/4" • Plant Spacing: Approx. 8"-10" apart Best if used by 2026 We only use tracking on orders $10+.Endive is a cold-hardy green that can be grown easily from seed as long as it has cool weather, well-drained soil, and plenty of moisture. Plant your endive seeds in a spot that will get at least 4 hours of sun per day. Endive plants thrive in full sunlight, but they can also tolerate partial shade, especially in warmer climates. They will, however, struggle if planted in a spot with full shade. Aerate your soil before planting by working in organic material such as perlite, vermiculite, or compost. In warm climates, endive is best planted as a fall crop, direct-sown in late summer or early fall. Scatter seeds by hand in even rows on top of the soil, keeping your rows to a distance of at least 18 inches. This will accommodate the size of mature endives. Cover seeds with no more than 1/4” soil. Anything more and they will not be able to push through to the surface. Water well and keep the soil moist while you wait for germination which you should see within 7 days. When your seedlings have their first true leaves, thin them to 8 inches apart. Water regularly around the base of your plants, every 1-3 days as needed. Endive requires a lot of moisture to grow properly, but will do best if the leaves are not left wet, as this can encourage disease. You can start harvesting using the cut-and-come-again method after about a month, when the plants are a few inches tall. Snip with sharp scissors outside leaves, leaving the base of the plant intact to continue growing. Or, you can leave your plants to mature into full heads, which takes about 12 weeks. Harvest mature heads by cutting with a sharp knife at the base of the plant. Gardening for happiness! Treevale
