Additional Details

When to Sow En Cornet De Bordeaux Endive Seeds

March to September.

Where to Sow

Sowings can be made underglass, sow seeds into pots or trays or modules of seed sowing compost at a temperature of 15-20C and lightly cover seeds with sprinkling of vermiculite or compost. Alternatively sow seeds from March thinly along rows 1.5cm (1/2in) deep and 30cm (12in) apart direct in the vegetable plot.

What to do next

Sowings made underglass can be pricked out into individual pots or module trays and grown on until ready to harden off and plant out into the vegetable plot 30cm (12in) apart between the plants and the rows. Seedlings sown direct outside can be thinned once large enough to handle to 30cm (12in) apart.

Maturity

10-12 weeks from sowing

Handy Tip

Early and late sowings will be more successful if grown under cloches in a polytunnel.
