Place in a propagator or seal the container inside a polythene bag at constant temperature of 15-18C (59-64F) until after germination which takes up to 21 days. When the seedlings are large enough to handle, carefully transplant them into 7.5cm (3") pots and grow on at a slightly reduced temperature. When all risk of frost is passed gradually acclimatise celery plants to outdoor conditions over a period of 7 to 10 days prior to planting outdoors. Grow celery plants in moist, rich fertile, well-drained soil in full sun. Prepare the soil in early spring by adding plenty of well-rotted garden compost to the soil to improve its structure and fertility. A week before planting, apply a general fertiliser to the soil surface and rake it in. Plant celery at a distance of 25cm (10") apart, making sure that the crown of the plant sits at ground level. Plant self-blanching celery in a grid formation to promote self-blanching. Water the plants in well after planting.Product specifications:. Position: Full Sun.
