Tips & Advice:
Sowing Indoors
Almost fill a seed tray with moist seed compost. Sow seeds thinly over the surface and cover them with a little more compost. Place in the warmth, 15-20°C and keep moist.
Growing On
Keep seedlings in a light position but shade from direct sunlight. When large enough to handle, transplant 5cm apart into trays of potting compost, or individually in small pots.
Hardening Off / Planting Out
Gradually accustom plants to outside conditions for 2-3 weeks and then plant out when the danger of frost has passed. Allow 30cm between plants.
Advice
Plants may need some additional support as they grow, especially in exposed sites.
