Best harvested after frost when the roots are sweetest, and versatile enough to stew, bake, or serve in a cream sauce. Even the shoots, buds, and young leaves are edible. A true homestead crop that rewards patience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"sp-pills\"\u003e\n      \u003cspan class=\"sp-pill-popular\"\u003e🔥 Most Popular\u003c\/span\u003e\n      \u003cspan class=\"sp-pill\"\u003ePre-1900 Heirloom\u003c\/span\u003e\n      \u003cspan class=\"sp-pill\"\u003eOrganic\u003c\/span\u003e\n      \u003cspan class=\"sp-pill\"\u003eFrost Sweetened\u003c\/span\u003e\n      \u003cspan class=\"sp-pill\"\u003eWhole Plant Edible\u003c\/span\u003e\n      \u003cspan class=\"sp-pill\"\u003eCool Season\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"sp-section\"\u003e\n    \u003ch2 class=\"sp-section-title\"\u003eSeed specs\u003c\/h2\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"sp-stats-grid\"\u003e\n      \u003cdiv class=\"sp-stat-card\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sp-stat-label\"\u003eDays to Maturity\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sp-stat-value\"\u003e120 days\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n      \u003cdiv class=\"sp-stat-card\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sp-stat-label\"\u003eRoot Size\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sp-stat-value\"\u003e1–1½\" x 8\"\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n      \u003cdiv class=\"sp-stat-card\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sp-stat-label\"\u003eSeeds per Pack\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sp-stat-value\"\u003e~185 seeds\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n      \u003cdiv class=\"sp-stat-card\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sp-stat-label\"\u003eSeason\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sp-stat-value\"\u003eCool\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n      \u003cdiv class=\"sp-stat-card\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sp-stat-label\"\u003ePlanting Depth\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sp-stat-value\"\u003e1\"\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n      \u003cdiv class=\"sp-stat-card\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sp-stat-label\"\u003eGermination\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sp-stat-value\"\u003e10 to 14 days\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n      \u003cdiv class=\"sp-stat-card\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sp-stat-label\"\u003eSpacing\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sp-stat-value\"\u003e3–4\" apart\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n      \u003cdiv class=\"sp-stat-card\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sp-stat-label\"\u003eRow Spacing\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sp-stat-value\"\u003e12–18\" apart\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003chr class=\"sp-divider\"\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"sp-section\"\u003e\n    \u003ch2 class=\"sp-section-title\"\u003eGrowing tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"sp-tips\"\u003e\n      \u003cdiv class=\"sp-tip\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"sp-tip-icon\"\u003e🌱\u003c\/span\u003eDirect sow in spring as soon as soil can be worked.
