Amaranthus performs best in warm weather and ample sunlight.
Step 1: Seed Sowing
Broadcast seeds evenly over prepared soil or sow in shallow rows.
Cover lightly with a thin layer of soil and gently water.
Step 2: Spacing
Plant to Plant: 25–30 cm (10–12 Inches)
Row to Row: 45 cm (1.5 Feet)
For baby leaf production, closer spacing can be used.
Step 3: Sunlight
Provide 6–8 hours of direct sunlight daily.
The plants grow vigorously in warm, sunny conditions.
