Sowing of Veg Seeds
 
Sow seeds March to August outdoors, or anytime under glass.

Seed is very small, so sow thinly about 6mm deep in drills about 25cm (10in) apart.

Alternatively sow indoors in pots or trays, on the surface of a good, moist, seed compost and cover with a sprinkling of vermiculite or compost.

Keep at a temperature about 15C (60F) until after germination which takes about 14 days.

Growing of Veg Seeds

Thin out to 15cm (6in) between plants.

If sown under glass, transplant seedlings when large enough to handle into individual 5cm (2in) pots and grow on steadily.

Plant out when soil conditions are favourable.

Prefers moist soil in a semi shaded situation.
