Growing Tips:
- Planting: Sow Amaranth Seeds directly into well-drained soil in early spring after the last frost date. Plant seeds 1/4 inch deep and space them 6-12 inches apart in rows that are 12-18 inches apart.
- Sunlight: Amaranth thrives in full sunlight, so choose a location that receives at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight per day. In hotter climates, some afternoon shade may help protect the plants from scorching heat.
- Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water amaranth plants deeply once or twice a week, especially during hot, dry weather. Mulching around the plants can help retain soil moisture and suppress weeds.
- Thinning: Thin out crowded amaranth seedlings once they have developed their first true leaves, leaving space for the remaining plants to grow to their full size. Thinning helps prevent overcrowding and ensures that each plant has room to thrive.
- Harvesting: Harvest Amaranth leaves as needed once they reach a length of 6-8 inches. Use scissors or a sharp knife to cut the outer leaves near the base of the plant, allowing the inner leaves to continue growing for future harvests.
