Ha Gobo, Burdock (Gobo),

Ha, Gobo Burdock Seeds. Burdock has been grown for centuries, mainly in China and Japan, for its culinary and medicinal uses. It is loved for its edible crisp roots, tender leaves, and hearty stems. The thick white stalk is about 12" long with light green tender leaves. The edible root is about 6" long. In Japan, it is used fresh for salad and has a pleasant earthy aroma.

Burdock, also known as "Gobo" in Japan, is an incredibly nutritive food and medicine. Its root (Arctium lappa) is often cooked in soups or pickled, and it is known for its healing properties and high vitamin content. The burdock root's ability to penetrate heavy clay subsoil can help improve drainage, but be careful—once burdock is in your garden, it is difficult to get it out.

Burdock seeds will not germinate without sensing light. Seeds must be barely covered with soil. Keep soil moist. Fertilize as needed. Harvest young and tender leaves. 75 days.
