Sowing & Growing
Begin by sowing seeds thinly in seed trays filled with a mixture of seed and potting compost. Alternatively, place 2-3 seeds in small pots and lightly cover them with compost. Gently firm the compost and water with care. Maintain a temperature of about 15-20°C in a heated greenhouse or propagator. Once the seedlings reach a height of 10cm, transplant them into larger individual pots.
“Harden off” the plants for 3-4 days before the final outdoor planting, which should take place from May to June. Space the plants 45cm apart. Planting to a depth of 0.5cm below the seed leaves is recommended for a sturdy plant. This variety is also suitable for greenhouse cultivation in large pots, greenhouse soil, or grow bags.

I have just bought all my new seeds for next year’s vegetables after having such great results this year. Budget seeds are so helpful, I’m a newbie in the veg growing world and they have been helpful in choosing the best seeds to start with etc. also much cheaper than elsewhere so if I do mess up in the future it isn’t costing me so much. I thoroughly recommend Budget Seeds for all your veg and flower seeds.
