Celery 'Golden Spartan' / 'Self-Blanching Golden Yellow'

Sowing method: February-April. Celery is known as a slow and difficult germinator. However, this is not too bad if you follow the following method: 1) Celery is a light germinator, so the seeds should not be covered with soil, but simply pressed down and kept moist. Covering with a light-permeable fleece or cloth prevents drying out. 2) Celery does not like too high temperatures. Germination between 15-22°C is optimal. So beware of sun irradiation behind glass. In this way, germination takes place within 2 weeks. Good luck!
