Product Details

Unwins Rocket is quick-cropping with a lovely peppery flavour. It's fast growing leaves that are great in salads and on pizzas.

Rocket is always a welcome addition to the salad bowl with its distinctively sharp, spicy flavour.

Sow little and often for a continuous supply through many months. They can be grown in containers as well as in veg beds too.

  • Fast growing
Sow: March to July
Harvest: June to September

Sowing
Sow seeds thinly in a shallow, pre-watered row, lightly covering with a little soil. Keep soil moist, as dry conditions impair germination. Small sowings made every three weeks through the summer will ensure a continuous supply. Allow 30cm between rows.

Thinning
Thin seedlings to about 10cm apart when large enough to handle. Ensure remaining seedlings are still firm in the soil.

Aftercare
Water plants generously in dry weather.

Advice
Pick when large enough to use; frequent picking will give a longer cropping period. Try mixing with baby spinach leaves and herbs for an aromatic salad. If growing in containers, choose a pot at least 25cm in diameter.
