Grew like wild fire
By Amanda Dawson 19-06-2011
Tiny seeds like specs of dust, didn't expect much. Grew really quickly and the majority of the 1500 seeds germinated, healthy seedlings, great plants. Will buy more next year and try and sow a little thinner for easier planting out. A very good buy.

Sowing Instructions

Sow late winter to mid spring at 18-24C (65-75F) on the surface of a good seed compost and gently firm down. Keep soil damp but not wet. Do not exclude light, sealing in a polythene bag after sowing is helpful. Germination usually takes 14-21 days.

Growing Instructions

When seedlings are large enough to handle, transplant in bunches of 3 or 4 per 7.5cm (3in) pot and grow on in cooler conditions. Plant up into containers, hanging baskets etc., and leave for 10-15 days before moving out of doors after all risk of frost.

Caution

Harmful if eaten
