Growing at a glance…

Sow indoors 4-8 weeks before the last frost in spring somewhere warm, roughly 18-24C. Sow the seeds on the surface of the compost and firm them in gently. Keep soil damp but not wet. You can seal them in a plastic bag to aid humidity and save watering. Keep them somewhere sunny too. Germination will take roughly 10-21 days, depending on the temperature. Once they're big enough to handle, you can transplant them into trays and grow on in cooler conditions. Acclimatise outside for 10-15 days after the risk of frost has passed.
