1 Packet (75 Seeds) (VM06818)

  • Sow seed on the surface of good free draining, damp seed compost and cover 3mm (1/8in) deep with vermiculite or compost.
  • Place in a propagator or seal container inside a polythene bag and place at 20-30°C (68-86F) until after germination which takes 7-14 days. Do not exclude light as this helps germination.
  • Seeds can be sown direct into the soil after the last frost.
  • Transplant seedlings when large enough to handle, into trays or 7.5cm (3in) pots. Take care not to damage the fragile roots.
  • Gradually acclimatise plants to cooler conditions for a few weeks before planting out after all risk of frost, 30cm (12in) apart.
