Sow 5 - 8 seeds per cell or plug. Apply Sea Magic from first watering. From the second set of true leaves to time of transplanting, alternate between Sea Magic and seed-starting fertilizer (such as Evolve) once per week. Once seedlings have emerged, the ideal air temperature is lower, at 18 - 20 ° C.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting depth:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Surface.

Celery does not perform well in heavy soils, as roots have to penetrate to a depth of 60 cm (24 inches). Plant outdoors up to two weeks before last frost date. Harden plants off by reducing watering for one week (but not longer). Avoid prolonged exposure to night temperatures below 14° C, as this leads to bolting.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNotes: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCelery requires very well-amended soil.
