Growing at a glance…
Early sowings should be popped under cover with additional heat provided. Try to keep seeds in 21C+ during germination. Their soil must be well-drained and humus-rich - the more, the better. If you're struggling for space, keep turning the branches back to the centre to prevent spreading.
