Level fill a module tray with seed compost, firming with the base of another tray. Water well with a fine rose. Sow seeds individually, covering with 1 cm of compost (or sow singly in 7 cm pots). Keep moist at 10–15 °C.
Planting Out
Gradually acclimatise seedlings to outdoor conditions over 2–3 weeks before planting out, spacing 45 cm apart. Keep well watered in dry spells.
Sowing Outdoors
Sow seeds thinly in a shallow, pre-watered row. Lightly cover with soil and keep moist until seedlings are established. Thin to 10 cm apart.
Transplanting
When seedlings have produced about 4 true leaves, transplant to final cropping positions, leaving 45 cm between plants in rows 60 cm apart. Firm in and water well during dry weather.
Advice
Use netting to prevent damage from Cabbage White Butterfly.
