| How To Grow | Sow 0.5in (1.5cm) deep in a seed bed. Transplant to final growing positions when seedlings are 20cm tall, taking care to avoid damage to the roots. Make holes 6in (15cm) deep and 6in apart, allowing 1ft (30cm) between rows. Drop a plant into each hole and water it in. Do NOT firm soil round the plant. Generous feeding promotes quick growth. Harvest when stems are 20mm thick, usually 12-16 weeks after transplanting. Seedlings emerge 10-14 days. |
