When to sow outside: Even though a cool season crop (withstanding temperatures as low as 15° F), seeds germinate best when soil temperature warms up – usually 1 to 2 weeks after the last spring frost. May bolt if started too early in spring. Also sow in early fall for late fall harvest.
When to start inside: Not recommended.
