Is there a diff kinds of chicory or just one? I get confused with diff pics on the web. can you also share where to buy seeds for plantation? I'm interested in chicory where it's roots can be used to make coffee.
Yes, there are different varieties. For plump roots you can grow witloof chicory. Radicchio variety is grown for chicory heads/leaves. check out this website who I'm an affiliate with. It seems they have these seeds. : www.trueleafmarket.com/products/endive-seeds-witloof-chicory?variant=31761906794611&source=pepperjam&publisherId=300507&clickId=4340685531&PepperJam&

Why are Chicory roots good for you if one of the benefits of the plants is that they absorb heavy metals from the soil. Doesn't that mean that the roots would have heavy metals in them?
Good question. Yes, but I thinks that's why growers have to follow regulations regarding food safety. Using a good quality can prevent health problems and provide micronutrients only in smaller quantities.
Can I plant it in Saudi Arabia ,does it handle the heat?
It is a cool season crop. You can try growing during winter months. In summers, the plants will bolt quickly and produce seeds. Once bolted, the leaves do not taste that great and are small. Also, plants put the entire energy in producing seeds and harvest is small.
Is the wild chicory as good?
Yes, wild chicory is healthy.
The flowers also open and close in the morning or shade..
Thanks for sharing!
I am growing this plant and thought I would get radicchio hearts by now in the garden for few months
I think it depends on the variety and climate (cold) . If you have a radicchio variety it should develop heads in about 2-2 1/2 months.
Did you eat the green leaves or just wait for root?
You can use the leaves in salads. They are edible. I didn't get a chance to eat the leaves the last time I grew them. I'll try them next time for sure. 🙂
Aapake pass available hai kya?? I want it for research purpose.
Hi, I can't send seeds as I'm not a seed seller. There are many regulations that one has to follow to share seeds.
But, check out this website who I'm an affiliate with. It seems they have these seeds. Good luck with your research! : www.trueleafmarket.com/products/endive-seeds-witloof-chicory?variant=31761906794611&source=pepperjam&publisherId=300507&clickId=4340685531&PepperJam&
Is radicchio AKA chicory??
Yes, it is.
Does Chicory grow wild IN THE UNITED STATES, IN OKLAHOMA
Yes, it can be grown outdoors in Oklahoma. Oklahoma is USDA zones 6-8 which falls withing the growing range of chicory.
@@SeedtoLife No, I mean they grow absolutely wild on their own everywhere in Michigan!
@@Polksalad615 I'm not sure but it is very possible. It may not be safe to consume if it is sprayed with herbicides.
My gophers sure enjoy the roots. As such I’ve not gotten to enjoy any. Yet.
Oh, recently when we had the similar problem, my husband put some traps near the garden bed. They work great. I feel bad for giving this suggestion as coincidentally it is World Rat Day today.
@@SeedtoLife we’re over ran so much that traps don’t even work. I think I’m going to move the plants into big planting tubs.
These little boogers are annoying to be sure.
Oh, I can understand how annoying it can be. Check out the corrugated metal beds. I use chicken coup wire mesh around some plants. Happy Gardening!
We call it blue devil!
Blue Devil. Thanks for sharing!🙂
@@SeedtoLife can we eat their flowers as well for just roots..? In one video I heard their leaves are bitter in taste. Is it?? In Pakistan and india it's growing season starts in March and April right..??
Yes, you can eat the flowers, leaves, and roots. Flowers can be added to soups, salads, stir-fry or tea. Leaves are bitter and high in oxalic acid. It is better to cook them to reduce the bitterness. I think it is okay to start chicory in Pakistan and India anytime at least for homegardeners as we are blessed with decent weather throughout the year.
Bought some mixed Italian mix salad greens... Good price 3 years ago. 1.98 for 3g package bought several.. threw them out only the chickory made it.. 3 yes later still growing strong.. basically a weed..
Great! Constant supply of healthy leaves. Thanks for sharing!
