Sow thinly 1.5cm deep in rows 25cm apart in a prepared seedbed and lightly cover with fine soil. Seedlings appear in 7-14 days. Thin to about 15cm apart when large enough. Water in carefully. For a continuous crop sow every 2-3 weeks. (Sowings may benefit from cloche or fleece protection and they might benefit from sowing inside in very cold spells and transplanting seedlings outside and then fleecing).
