Planting Amaranth
You can start them inside 6-8 weeks before the last frost or direct seed outside once the danger of frost has passed
If you direct seed outdoors, wait for soil temps to reach 65°F. Amaranth seeds are small, so sprinkle them onto prepared soil and top with a thin layer of earth.
Indoors, plant seeds one-fourth of an inch deep and keep moist.
Germination Time
Seeds aren’t fussy to start and will germinate in under a week in temperatures between 65-80°F.
Spacing Plants
Thin seedlings 10-12 inches apart after they’ve sprouted. Plant seeds or transplants in the garden 6 to 18-inches apart with 18 inches between rows. Amaranth is a tall plant and can get up to 8-feet tall depending on the variety and conditions.
