Sow direct outdoors from March to May, or in September for established rosettes that will flower the following summer. Sow at 1cm depth in poor, well-drained soil. Full sun is essential. Chicory is a specialist of alkaline and chalky conditions but will tolerate almost any ground except waterlogged bog. Once established, it requires no additional watering even in peak summer heat — the deep taproot reaches moisture far below the surface.
