Harvest

Sowing & growing

Spread seeds evenly over a flattened tray of compost and cover with 5-10mm compost. Firm down well. Water with a spray bottle to avoid dislodging seeds. Cover with another tray for 5-7 days to keep moisture in and light out (weigh down if possible). Check each day, once germination has begun remove weight. Continue to black out until seedlings are 25mm high, then place somewhere warm and bright.

Aftercare

Water with a spray bottle regularly but to avoid mould or damping off, avoid overwatering. or water from the bottom.
