Hello,

Thinking about fennel for 2008 garden. I have read that the bulb must be "hilled" with soil in order for the bulbs to get large. Anyone use a cover over the fennel bulb instead of soil?? Seems to me that using a thick piece of fleece or wool would serve the same purpose and keep the dirt out of the bulb.

Any info on growing fennel for the bulb (not for the seed) is needed. Thanks!!!!!!!!!
