Sow seeds directly outdoors from March to July in fine, stone-free soil. Create shallow drills about 1 cm deep and space rows 20–25 cm apart. Keep the soil moist during germination, which typically takes 10–20 days at 10–20°C. Once seedlings emerge, thin to 5–8 cm apart to allow roots to develop fully. For containers, use deep pots with loose compost and maintain consistent moisture. As seedlings grow, ensure full sun exposure and weed regularly to reduce competition. Water evenly to prevent splitting and harvest when roots reach full colour and size, typically from June to October.
