Growing at a glance…

Pre-soaking these seeds in warm water about an hour before sowing will speed up germination. These seeds can be grown indoors, but are frost hardy so they should be sown from March onwards outside. Sow roughly 1cm deep in rows, spaced 30cm apart. Thin seedlings to 8cm apart once they've reached about 5-10cm tall.
