Directions for Use:
For sowing: Each “seed” is a cluster containing 1–4 true seeds. Soak seeds for two hours before sowing to help moisture penetrate the outer coating. Sow directly where they are to grow or into seed trays filled with fine seed-raising mix. When seedlings reach 3–5cm tall, separate clustered seedlings and transplant, spacing as recommended.
For growing on: Grow in a sunny, well-drained position. Prepare soil with compost and organic matter before planting. Water at the base of plants to reduce disease risk. Make successive sowings every few weeks for a continuous harvest.
