Planting / harvesting notes

To direct seed, sow as soon as the soil can be worked and cover the seeds lightly with soil. For transplanting, sow the seeds 3-4 weeks before last frost, lightly covered. Transplant in the field 9-12" apart after last frost.

Seed keeping notes

Cut the plant above the soil when seedheads are dry. Allow the plant to dry further in a ventilated place protected from precipitation. One threshing method is to stomp on the dried plants on a tarp. Another is to whack the entire plants in a bucket, allowing seeds to drop. Thresh further with hands, allowing seeds to separate from plant material. Screen and winnow carefully. This can be difficult, because the seeds act like velcro!
