- Choose the right location: Artichoke plants prefer sunny locations with well-drained soil. Make sure that the location is protected from strong winds and offers enough space, as artichokes can grow into large, sprawling plants.

- Sowing time: The best time to sow artichoke seeds is in spring, when the soil temperatures are warm enough. Sow the seeds about 1 to 2 centimetres deep in the prepared soil and keep it evenly moist.

- Regular watering: Artichoke plants need regular watering during the growing season to stay healthy. Make sure to keep the soil evenly moist, but avoid overwatering as this can lead to root rot.
- Mulching: Mulch the soil around the artichoke plants with organic materials such as straw or compost to retain moisture, suppress weed growth and improve soil structure.
- Special care during the flowering period: Artichokes produce attractive purple flowers that are also edible. Regularly remove faded flowers to encourage the formation of new ones, thus promoting the health and growth of the plants.
