Tips & Advice:
Sowing Indoors
Level fill a module tray with seed compost firming with the base of another tray. Water well with a fine rose. Sow seeds individually and lightly cover with compost or vermiculite. Place in a propagator at 18-20°C or cover tray with cling film and leave in a warm room. Keep moist.
Growing On
When shoots appear, remove cling film. Keep seedlings in a light position, but shade from direct sunlight. When plants have 4 leaves transplant to 8cm pots of potting compost. Grow coolly and steadily. Minimum temperature 10°C.
Planting Out
When the first flowering truss forms transfer to greenhouse border, grow bags or large pots 30cm apart in rows 60cm apart minimum 10°C.
Growing On
Cordon/ Indeterminate/ Vine varieties require training up canes, strings or wires. Remove side shoots as they appear.
