Where to Sow

Early sowings can be made underglass at a temperature of 16 C, sow into 8cm (3in) pots or modular trays  filled with seed sowing compost. Outside sowings can be made from May onwards into the growing site 5cm (2in) deep. Sow 2-3 seeds every 20cm(8in) apart with rows spaced 45cm (18in) apart.
