While not considered a medicinal herb, its nutrient content supports overall wellness and easy digestion.
Full Growing Information from Seed:
- Sow seeds indoors 4–6 weeks before the last frost or directly outdoors once soil can be worked.

- Keep soil consistently moist during germination.
- Thin seedlings to 8–12 inches apart once established.
- Prefers full sun to partial shade and fertile, well-drained soil.
- Water regularly to prevent bitterness and bolting.
- Mulch to keep roots cool and retain moisture.
