When to Plant

April to June

Harvest

July to September

Where to Sow

Sow seed on edge to prevent rotting 1.5cm (1/2") deep in individual 9cm (3 1/2in) pots under glass at a constant day and night temperature of 21°C.                                                              

What to do next

When the plants are about 10cm (4") tall, plant out into final positions into large pots or growbags under glass. Plants have a trailing habit, so require plenty of space if growing on the ground of a Polytunnel or provide some form of support and tie in stems as required.

Handy Tip

Best grown in a Polytunnel or glasshouse, but can be grown outside in a good summer, plant through black plastic, so the soil remains warm.
