Special tips: Pinch growing point out at 6-7 leaves to encourage side-shoots to carry more fruit. Water around rather than on the plant to avoid scorching of foliage and fungal disease. As soon as the first fruits have started to grow, commence high potassium feeding every 10-14 days.

Attractive mid green colour, tall with fleshy stalks. A self-blanching variety.

Soil & Site: Work the soil the best you can adding compost and manure to help moisture retention. A few days before planting, work in some Growmore fertiliser into the surface of the bed or trench.

Spacing: The prepared trench should be 15 ins (41cm) wide and space the plants 9 ins (23cm) apart.
Special tip: You'll find this crop is both thirsty and hungry so add liquid soluble fertiliser, such as Phostrogen to the watering can regularly to help the crop along. It is essential that you lift your self-blanching celery before the main frosts arrive.
