What you need to know to Plant & Grow
For the best growth, select a sunny spot with a well-prepared, deep soil.
Planting: Sow successive crops two weeks apart from mid-spring to early summer. Simply lay out the 2-metre seed tape in the desired location and cover it with 6 mm of soil. Space rows 50 cm apart.
Care: Keep the seedbed evenly moist during the 14-21 day germination period. For best seed emergence, avoid soil crusting while the seeds are sprouting. The seed tape helps reduce the need for thinning, but for best results, thin seedlings to a final spacing of 5 cm apart. Keep the soil evenly moist during the growing season and avoid high-nitrogen fertilizers.
