Sowing advice f

Sow  indoors approx. 6 weeks before the last frost in pots or trays. Surface sow into cell pots filled with moist well-drained seed compost.  Cover very thinly as light assists germination.  Keep moist. Propagate 22-24°C. Germination takes 2-3 weeks. Once seedlings are large enough to handle transplant to 8cm pots and grow on in cooler conditions.  Plant out once all danger of frost is passed after acclimatising.
