| | Fennel, a perennial herb of the carrot family, is grown as an annual and has a tendency to bolt, a periodic problem with the splitting of the bulb and formation of excessive side shoots within the bulb. | | | Because the width and thickness of finnochio fennel bulbs continue to increase over time, the determination of the optimum harvest period was difficult. | | | The time from sowing in the greenhouse to harvest ranged from 104 to 120 days over two growing seasons; time from field transplanting to harvest ranged from 67 to 80 days. |
