This mix germinated at an excellent rate. We thinned them several times, and transplanted the thinned seedlings. This crop could have easily filled two beds. Lesson learned - space the seeds farther apart knowing their germination rate. Delicious mix of greens. High yield - only frost got in the way of their continuing harvest.
