These non-GMO, open-pollinated pelleted seeds are available in four sizes: 60, 80, 100, or 200 seeds.

Germination Rate: 99%. Test Date: 11/25. JSS.

Texas Minimum Germination Rate: 80%

• Flexible Growing: Muir can be grown in garden beds, containers, raised beds, and hydroponic systems when its growing needs are met.

Planting Tips for Success

• Choose the Right Season: Sow for spring or fall harvests, and use Muir’s heat tolerance to help extend production into warmer weather.
• Provide Sunlight: Grow in a sunny location with good airflow. In very hot conditions, afternoon protection can help keep leaves tender.
• Prepare the Soil: Use fertile, well-drained soil enriched with organic matter, and keep the seedbed free of weeds.
• Plant Carefully: Place pelleted seeds at the depth recommended on the packet, then cover lightly and avoid burying them too deeply.
• Space for Heads: Thin or transplant seedlings to approximately 4 inches apart so each head has room to develop and airflow can reach the foliage.
• Keep Moisture Even: Water consistently so the soil stays evenly moist but not waterlogged, especially while seedlings are establishing.
• Feed as Needed: Start with fertile soil and apply a balanced vegetable fertilizer according to label directions when plants need additional nutrition.
• Harvest Promptly: Begin harvesting tender leaves early or allow heads to mature in approximately 60 days under favorable conditions.
