💡 Care Tip
Plant the crowns in a sunny garden bed with loose, fertile soil. Spread the roots gently and cover them with soil according to local planting conditions. Keep the bed evenly moist while the plants establish, and avoid harvesting heavily during the first season after planting. Allowing the plants to develop strong roots and foliage helps support future harvests.
