Sowing
Sow seeds thinly in a shallow, pre-watered row and cover lightly with soil. Keep soil moist, as dry conditions can impair germination. Small sowings every three weeks will ensure a continuous supply. Allow 20 cm between rows.

Thinning / Growing On
Thin seedlings to about 15 cm apart when large enough to handle, ensuring the remaining seedlings are still firm in the soil.

Aftercare / Advice
