Plant your seeds inside and put plants out after the last frost in your area. Start the seeds about 14 weeks before the last frost and allow up to 3 weeks for the germination process. Harvest begins in year 3. Mulch them well in the fall, and allow them to grow without harvesting during the first 2 growing seasons. They can be grown in zones 2 – 11, but they prefer temperate climates. Space 2 – 3 feet apart.
