When to plant: Winter through to Autumn How to grow: Sow thinly, 6mm (quarter-inch) deep in rows 30cm (1ft) apart. Keep moist. Repeat every two weeks for continuous crops. Thin out to 10cm (4in) apart and water well to replace any soil dislodged from roots. Add a complete fertiliser before sowing. Harvest: Throughout the year as required
