Sowing Instructions

Sowing time:February to June or September to October.

Sow into pots or trays of moist seed compost and cover seed with a very fine sprinkling of compost or vermiculite. Keep at a temperature of between 15-20C (59-68F). After sowing, do not exclude light as this helps germination. Keep the surface of the compost moist but not waterlogged; germination usually takes 14-30 days.

Growing Instructions

When large enough to handle, transplant seedlings into 7.5cm (3 inch) pots or trays. Gradually acclimatise young plants to outdoor conditions for 10-15 days before planting out after all risk of frost, 30cm (12 inches) apart.

Aftercare Instructions

For best results, provide any ordinary, well-drained soil in full sun.

Caution

Toxic if eaten.
