Sowing Instructions
| Sowing time: | mid January to mid March. |
Sow into pots or trays of moist seed compost and cover with a 1/4in layer of compost or vermiculite.
Keep at a temperature of between 15-20C (59-68F).
After sowing, do not exclude light as this helps germination.
Keep the surface of the compost moist but not waterlogged; germination will usually take 7-21 days.
Growing Instructions
When large enough to handle, transplant seedlings into 7.5cm (3in) pots or trays.
Gradually acclimatise to outdoor conditions for 10-15 days before planting out after all risk of frost, 30cm (12in) apart.
For best results, provide any ordinary, well-drained soil in full sun.
Caution
Harmful if eaten.
