Planted late October. Just my second crop of any size, looks like near to 100% germination rate. I have about 700 in the ground. Still too wet to bother pulling the weeds.

Harvest in late July. It goes in the ground in late October. A garden crop that takes 9 months.

I never got mine in the ground last year, it's still sitting on the refrigerator. Surprisingly, it hasn't sprouted yet.
I never thought about planting it in weedblock, I'll have to try it with the garlic and my onions this year. (y)
Usually it's just my seedlings that get that.
