When to Sow: March to May

Where to Sow: Sow seeds into individual pots or module trays of moist seed compost and cover with a very fine sprinkling of compost or vermiculite. Place in a propagator or warm place at a temperature of between 20-23°C. Do not exclude light as this helps germination which usually takes 7-14 days. Later sowings can be made outdoors once the soil has warmed 3mm (1⁄8”) deep in drills 30cm (12”) apart, in well-cultivated weed free soil. When large enough to handle, thin out seedlings to 30cm (12”) apart.

What to do Next: When well grown, gradually acclimatise young plants to outdoor conditions for a few weeks before planting out after all risk of frost 23- 30cm (9-12”) apart, taking care not to damage the root system. Best planted in well-drained soil in full sun.
