Germination takes 7-14 days at 15-25°C. Keep soil moist and pick outer leaves regularly from about 50-60 days; cut-and-come-again harvesting keeps plants productive. Remove flower stalks promptly to stop the leaves turning bitter and to extend the harvest. In the plains, grow as a winter crop; in hills it can crop for much of the year.\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhen should sorrel be sown in India?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSow in autumn to winter (October-January) across the plains for a cool-season crop. In hill stations with mild summers you can also sow in spring for a longer harvest.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan I grow sorrel in a container on my balcony?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A 8-10 inch pot with rich, moisture-retentive mix is ideal. Keep it well-watered, in morning sun, and pick outer leaves regularly for a steady supply.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"vedicflora","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51051878777078,"sku":"SED-HRB-SORREL-001","price":74.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0805\/4980\/6326\/files\/nurserylive-seeds-sorrel-herb-herb-seeds-16969338486924.jpg?v=1782714030","url":"https:\/\/vedicflora.com\/products\/sorrel-seeds","provider":"vedicflora","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
