Features:
Sow: Sow into trays of Yates Seed Raising Mix. Firm down and keep moist. Transplant when about 7cm high.
Care: Grow in well drained soil in sun or semi-shade. Enrich soil with organic matter and fertiliser (such as Yates Blood & Bone or Dynamic Lifter) before planting. Feed plants regularly with Yates Thrive Soluble Plant Food. Continuous harvest promotes new growth. Protect plants from snails and slugs with Yates Blitzem.
Hint: When harvesting, don’t cut the stems, pull them gently from the crown. Keep well watered in summer to keep the stems juicy. Don’t eat leaves as they contain a toxin. Remove flowering stems.
