How to grow
Ensure the soil is well-drained, rich in organic matter, and has a slightly acidic to neutral pH. Sow seeds directly into the soil, following the spacing recommendations on the seed packet. Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Endive plants are best grown in full sun. Choose a location that will receive at least 6 hours of full sun each day.
