How to Grow

As germination can be quite erratic, we suggest sowing seed heavily. Chill seed for 10 days before planting directly in the garden in mid-May. Select a sunny, well-drained site and sow directly on the surface. Keep evenly watered for the 20+ day germination period. Thin seedlings to 20 cm apart when they are 7.5 cm high. Seed can also be started indoors in a soil-less mix in mid-late April. After chilling the seed, leave seed uncovered and apply bottom heat at 24° C. Grow-on at 15° C before hardening off and transplanting out after the danger of frost has passed.
