Artichokes may evoke memories of spring and summer al fresco meals, but over at Martha Stewart's farm, prep for growing these delicious and nutritious plants starts now.
'I start sowing seeds indoors soon after the New Year,' Martha states on her blog. Starting from seed is not difficult to do, but it does require careful attention and patience. And once the seedlings start to develop, it’s important to keep up with maintenance care – thin out seedlings that are weak, prick out those that are growing too big for their seed starting trays, and transplant them into larger pots and flats.'
