Tips & Advice:
Sowing Indoors
Almost fill a seed tray with moist seed compost. Sow seeds thinly over the surface and lightly cover them with a little more compost. Place in the warmth, 10-15°C and keep moist.
Growing On
When large enough to handle transplant seedlings 5cm apart to trays of potting compost. Gradually accustom them to conditions outside for 2-3 weeks before planting out to their cropping positions 60cm apart during summer.
Sowing Outdoors
Sow seeds thinly in a shallow, pre-watered row. Lightly cover with a little soil. Keep soil moist until seedlings are established.
Transplanting
When the seedlings have produced about four true leaves, transplant them to their cropping positions, allowing 60cm each way between plants. Firm them in and keep watered well in dry spells.
Advice
Use netting to prevent damage from Cabbage White Butterfly.
