Additional info:
Bloody sorrel, also known as red veined sorrel germinates in 7-10 days and grows slowly at first. It takes about a month for growth to accelerate and the first harvest is ready about 5 weeks after sowing.
Harvest by cutting the largest leaves very close to the base. New growth takes place in the mid section of the plant. Red veined sorrel can stain your fingers, so try using scissors.

That’s good despite the “bloody” name! I love to add the small leaves to my salads.
