sowing info

Can be sown early in module trays or direct where they are to grow from May. Sow seed 1cm deep and keep moist at 15 – 22c. Sow at regular intervals for a continuous supply. Harden off seedlings and plant out after the last frost. 

growing info

Choose a sunny or lightly shaded spot with well-drained, fertile soil. Water regularly, especially in dry weather, to prevent bolting. Blanching (withholding light) for 10 days before harvest will reduce bitter flavour. Growing undercover can extend the season.

Sowing Months: April – September

Harvest Months: May – November

Position:  Full sun to partial shade
