Artichokes have a preference for a long, frost-free season. They do not grow well when there is heavy frost or snow. The temperature should not be under 55°F at night. For best results, start Artichokes indoors 7-8 weeks before last frost. Sow seeds ¼ inch deep. Space plants approximately 2-4 feet apart. You can also sow directly into the ground once the threat of frost is over. How to Grow Organic Artichoke from a Seed »
