How to Grow

1. Fill a seedling tray or small pot with a fine, clean, well-draining seed-starting mix.
2. Sow at the right depth — 1-1.5 cm.
3. Water gently with a spray bottle so the seeds are not displaced. Keep the medium moist, not waterlogged.

5. Under suitable conditions, sprouts usually appear in 14–21 days (soak the seed in water overnight before sowing).

Light, water, soil and feeding

• Light: Full sun
• Water: Keep the soil lightly moist and never let water collect. Deep but infrequent watering is better.
• Soil: Deep, loose, well-drained slightly acidic soil
• Temperature: 10–24°C; finishes as soon as the heat begins.
• Fertiliser: Low nitrogen need — use a low-nitrogen feed or just compost.
