Amaranth 'Polish' 50 days. This tall, heat-loving salad green is productive during the hot summer months when greens can be a challenge. Seedlings can be used as micro-greens. Breeder Frank Morton says there is a vocal contingent of salad growers who claim "Polish" is the best tasting variety of amaranth.
This variety of edible amaranth has tender, variegated red and green leaves and stems. A distinctly flavored green, Red Leaf will tolerate hot, dry and moist areas. Pick leaves young and use them in a salad or stir-fry, or put them alongside a dish as a handsome garnish. Sometimes called Chinese spinach, this green is a colorful addition to the garden, ranging from a light yellow green to a dark green and red color.

Soil and Water: Amaranth likes loam and silty loam soil. It is very drought tolerant so water only when dry.
Planting and Growing: Direct seed after soil has begun to warm in spring. The seed is very fine so you can mix it with a carrier like sand or coffee grounds. Scatter the seed and rake it in lightly.
Harvesting and Storage: For greens, harvest before flowers appear. You can harvest the entire plant. For seeds harvest after flowers have turned to seed, by cutting the stalk and letting it cure for a few days in a sunny l
Location. Bring it in at night to avoid moisture. Once dried, shake into a paper bag and filter with a sieve.
