Sow in the ground, in rows 35-40 cm apart. Cover seeds and lightly lead. After 6 weeks, thin out to 20 cm on the row. In cool climates, sow fennel in April, under cover. In warm climates, sow in late summer to avoid bolting. Fennel requires frequent watering. To obtain a white apple, butter the base of the stalks when they start to swell.
