Salad Burnet

300 seeds

Sow seeds directly in well-draining, fertile soil in early spring or fall. Plant seeds about 1/4 inch deep, spacing them 6-12 inches apart. Salad Burnet thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers cooler temperatures (55°F - 75°F/13°C - 24°C). Keep the soil consistently moist, but not soggy, and water regularly during dry periods. Thin seedlings to ensure proper air circulation and healthy growth. Fertilize lightly with compost or a balanced fertilizer. This herb is low-maintenance and drought-tolerant once established. Harvest young leaves for a mild, cucumber-like flavor, typically 50-60 days after sowing. Regular harvesting encourages new growth.
