Plant seeds about 1\/4 inch deep and keep the soil evenly moist until germination. Once seedlings are established, thin them to the recommended spacing to allow for proper bulb development.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFennel prefers full sun and well-drained soil. Water regularly, especially during dry spells, to prevent bolting. Mulch around plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Harvest bulbs when they are about 3-4 inches in diameter, and snip leaves as needed for fresh use. Seeds can be collected when they turn brown.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e300 Florence Fennel Seeds\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67835985985846,"sku":"FOLIA2-1561","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.6522935018_gv1z.jpg?v=1793096923","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/florence-fennel-seeds-sweet-anise-flavor-aromatic-herb-300-seeds","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
