Burrell Seeds 2018 Catalog

RUTABAGA Rutabagas are a cool season crop that sweeten after a couple of fall frosts. They can be planted early spring, when soil temperature reaches 40º, but are best if grown as a fall crop in warm areas. Sow rutabaga seeds 1/8” to 1/2” deep, 4” apart in rows 12” to 18” apart. Rutabagas perform best with rich, well worked soil and a steady supply of water. Harvest when tennis ball sized or larger. The smaller ones are more tender and have better flavor. Like carrots, rutabagas can be heavily mulched and harvested into winter when needed.

SPINACH A cool weather crop, direct seed spinach before the last heavy snows of spring. The melting snow will give it the moisture to germinate. Sprinkle on top of a loamy soil and the snow will push it in. In my high altitude garden, spinach seed can be planted from early spring until late fall, using it as a ground cover between larger plants. In warm climates, direct seed early and late in the season. While it works well in a cut-and-come-again salad garden, seeds can be planted 1/2” to 1” deep, 6” apart in a row.
