Cutting Celery - Key Growing Information
DAYS TO GERMINATION:
Usually 7–14 days.
SOWING:
Sowing in place is recommended: plant in spring after the last frost, shallowly, about 30 seeds per foot in rows 18" apart. Direct-sown plantings don't need thinning. For transplants, sow shallowly, since the seed needs some light to germinate. Use individual plug containers with several seeds in each, thinning to 2–3 plants per plug if needed. Set plugs out 6" apart in rows 18" apart.
LIGHT PREFERENCE:
Full sun to partial shade.
SOIL REQUIREMENTS:
Fertile soil, kept well watered.
PLANT HEIGHT:
Grows about 18" tall.
PLANT SPACING:
Space plants 6" apart.
HARDINESS ZONES:
Grown as an annual.
HARVEST:
Once plants are established and before they flower, cut leaves and stalks about three-quarters of the way down so plants keep growing.
SCIENTIFIC NAME:
Apium graveolens
