Prepare a well-drained seedbed in full sun to partial shade. Sow seeds about 1\/4 inch deep and keep the soil consistently moist until germination. Thin seedlings to stand 12-18 inches apart to allow for healthy growth. Caraway is a biennial, so it will produce foliage the first year and flowers and seeds the second year. Water regularly during dry spells, and avoid waterlogged soil. Mulching can help retain moisture and suppress weeds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor best results, plant caraway in a location where it can remain undisturbed, as it develops a taproot and does not transplant well. Harvest seeds when they turn brown and dry in late summer of the second year.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e100 Caraway (Carum carvi) seeds.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67835983724854,"sku":"FOLIA2-1506","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.6515998718_iwqo.jpg?v=1793096840","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/caraway-seeds-carum-carvi-100-seeds-for-planting-aromatic-culinary-herb","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
