Sow light-colored directly in place, 1 cm deep, in rows 40 cm apart. Press lightly and keep moist. Thin to 10 cm along the row when the first true leaf appears. From October to December, as soon as the plants are mature and the peripheral leaves have dropped, pull out the roots. Cut the leaves 3-5 cm from the collar and shorten the roots to 15-18 cm below the collar before forcing, from mid-October to early December, in a room at 8-10°C.
Harvest endives from mid-November to April.
