The reference says in Hawaii, peak April through August but harvested February through October. Maybe look for a warm weather type? Good luck!<br /><br />Malay-Kadazan-Thanks! I hope it produces some crunchy stalks!~TastyTravels~https://www.blogger.com/profile/17242583069509116828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4328565836109985766.post-212134036708633152011-05-07T06:12:22.099-07:002011-05-07T06:12:22.099-07:00Hopefully you get many juicy crunchy stem from you...Hopefully you get many juicy crunchy stem from your home-grown celery.Malay-Kadazan girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09692400837667241873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4328565836109985766.post-60577338657675807052011-05-07T00:44:36.267-07:002011-05-07T00:44:36.267-07:00I want to try growing celery..

I'll plant more if it looks good except I think I'm running outta space! <br /><br />scrapperal-Thanks! That's what I wanted to hear. I'm not a big onion user but you know green onions are favorites in asian cooking. I use it sparingly but it kills me to have to buy it all the time. Esp since it's so easy to resprout!<br /><br />Shannan-Thanks! I'm not sure I would really recommend growing celery from seed. It was a fun experiment but it takes a long time, has fickle growing conditions and I saw some at FM. LOL! There are some types that don't need "blanching". I think this is one of them. Good luck with your chard. I love growing it. Not only does it taste yummy but it's so pretty! You can cook it any way you use green such as collards, kale or beet leaves. They taste like beet leaves (the same family)...a little earthy. I posted a fabulous swiss chard with bacon recipe you should try. I love how the balsamic vinegar adds great depth of flavor. It's my favorite chard recipe!! I also use it in soups. It will grow and grow and grow. Be careful of leaf miners. Those buggers were pains last year. I'll use row covers or be extra careful preventing them by removing eggs early. I'm glad the Tyee spinach is doing well for you! I direct seeded some a few weeks ago and I'm looking forward to them.~TastyTravels~https://www.blogger.com/profile/17242583069509116828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4328565836109985766.post-27867748314696877572011-05-06T21:19:43.422-07:002011-05-06T21:19:43.422-07:00Wow!

I didn't want to try celery because don't you have to protect it from sunlight to get it to stand upright? Also, I'm growing bright lights chard for the first time. How do you eat it or cook it? Will it grow all summer? <br /><br />Last thing: that spinach you sent me is great! Tyee variety is the way to go.
