How & when to plant Celery is slow, so start the seeds indoors 8 to 10 weeks before your last frost. Press the tiny seeds onto the surface and barely cover them, since they need light, and keep them warm and moist; they germinate slowly, over about 14 to 21 days. Transplant to full sun or part shade after frost, spacing plants about 8 to 10 inches apart. Our Celery growing guide has the details. Growing & care Celery is thirsty and hungry, and the secret to tender, non-stringy stalks is never letting it dry out. Grow it in rich soil, water constantly and generously, and feed it through the season. It prefers cool, steady conditions, so a little afternoon shade helps in warm regions. Harvest Harvest celery once the bunches are full and tall, usually around 100 to 120 days, either cutting the whole plant at the base or taking outer stalks as needed. Cool weather sweetens the flavor, and celery is best used fresh and crisp soon after cutting. Benefits & uses Tall Utah celery is a kitchen staple with real flavor.
