Sowing & Growing

Sow all year round, in compost in small punnets, on soaked tissue paper on a saucer or broadcast in small blocks in the garden. Keep the growing medium wet at all times. Window sill sowings should be thinned every day, snap the seedlings near the base as required. Should be ready within two weeks of sowing.

Cress for salad garnishing is an all year crop but in the midst of winter use warm water and move away from cold windows.
