Sow 1/2" deep and 2" apart. Firm soil well over seeds. When seedlings emerge, carefully thin each cluster, leaving individual seedlings 4" apart so roots have room to size up. Keep well watered for sweetest flavor. Make several sowing 3 weeks apart for a continual supply. Plant again at midsummer for a fall crop.
