Full product description
Celery grows crisp, aromatic stalks far more flavorful than the supermarket version. How to grow Celery from seed Scatter the seeds on the surface and press them in lightly — they need a little light to sprout, so don't bury them. Then set the clear humidity lid on top to hold warmth and moisture. Keep the planter warm and in bright light, and mist the surface whenever it begins to dry. When your Celery sprouts appear, remove the lid and move it to your brightest window or under a grow light. Once seedlings have their second set of true leaves, pot them up or move them outdoors after your last frost.
