12-15" between plants in rows 18" apart.

FERTILITY:
Low to average. Well-drained soil is preferred although they are rather forgiving.
ADDITIONAL NOTES:
While not absolutely necessary, you may provide staking or netting to keep them upright and tidy.
Remember, amaranth loves warm weather and will grow very slowly until it warms up. You may use row cover to keep them warm after transplanting.
Edible seeds and young leaves for you and other critters. To harvest seeds, wait until flowers are firm and dry to the touch. Seed will rub out easily in your hands and plumes/stalks may be cut and tarped or hung to dry further. Protect from the birds if you're not into sharing!
Fresh or dried flowers.
Harvest flowers when 2/3-3/4 of them are open. Do remove most leaves as they wilt quickly and removal brings focus to the flowers. Expect a vase life of 7-10 days.
