Sow and Grow: Indoors, sow all year round by sprinkling seed on moist kitchen paper, cotton wool, or a thin layer of seed compost. Cover with kitchen paper until seeds start to geminate, then remove. Keep moist, do not allow to dry out. Cut with scissors when about 5 cm (2-inch) tall. Sowing to harvest takes up to 14 days. Regular sowings, made every two weeks, will ensure a continuous supply. Cress can be sown outdoors in a seedbed in summer. It will produce larger, hotter leaves. Harvest: All year round.
Hints and Tips: When growing mustard and cress, sow cress 3 to 4 days earlier to ensure they are both ready at the same time.

Happy to help –
I can’t seem to get cress in my online shop for love nor money, so I thought I’d grow some myself. The seeds came well packaged and are easy to grow. Can recommend.

This germinated within 48hours. After just a week they’re a good inch tall and nearly ready. Grown in a wine glass, sown on wet kitchen roll, placed in a windowsill. Classy! P.S. I wouldn’t be tempted to grow these on soil at all – you don’t have to wash them when grown on clean kitchen paper.
