Seeding:

Seed 10-15 lbs/acre or 1lb/1000’ (15,000-24,000 seeds/acre or 1,500-1,600 seeds/1000′). Plant 1 -1 1/2” deep. Row width: 30”-36”, seed spacing: 8”-12”. Min. soil temperature: 55-60°F (treated), 65-70°F (untreated).

Isolation: 

Isolate all su, se, and synergistic varieties from super sweets (sh2) Isolate by distance (garden: 25-75 ft, acreage: 250 ft) Isolate by time (plant at 12-14 day intervals).

Fertility:

Fertilize based off soil test results. A common recommendation is to side-dress 1/4 lb. of Urea per 100 foot row once plants reach 1 foot in height.
