How to grow

Plant seeds in well-prepared soil with access to full sun. Many varieties can be direct-sown outdoors after frost, while warm-weather crops such as tomatoes and peppers benefit from an early indoor start. Water consistently and harvest frequently to encourage continued production. Most varieties yield quickly, helping build gardening confidence while keeping the kitchen supplied.

Flavor profile

Expect sweet, crisp snap peas and cherry tomatoes, mild and tender lettuce, chard, and zucchini, sweet Marconi peppers, fresh herbal basil and parsley, and a crisp, mild daikon radish.
