Sowing Instructions
| Sowing time: | February to June or September to October. |
|---|
Sow into pots or trays of moist seed compost and cover seed with a fine sprinkling 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 usually takes 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, 23-30cm (9-12in) apart.
For best results, provide any ordinary, well-drained soil in full sun.
