Sow in pots 3 weeks before planting. Transplant when plants have 4 to 5 leaves, 25 cm apart in all directions. For direct sowing, sow lightly, in rows 30 cm apart. When plants have 4-5 leaves, thin to 30 cm. Keep the soil moist. Spring sowing is possible, provided it takes place just after the last frosts, to minimize the risk of early bolting.
Leaves are picked as needed, cutting them off at the base of the stem to encourage regrowth.
