To make the best use of space, sow seeds 23 cm (9-inch) apart, in a wide row in a zigzag pattern, leaving a space of 60 cm (2-feet) between each row. Seedlings usually appear in 10-18 days.

Water well and place in a warm position. A temperature of 15-20 degree C (60-68 degree F) is ideal. Gradually accustom plants to outside conditions (avoid frosts), before planting out 23 cm (9-inch) apart during April-May. Harvest: June-August. Hints and tips: Pinch out growing tips when first pods are approximately 1 cm (4-inch) long. This encourages an early crop and helps deter blackfly. Ideal for deep freezing. Care and Cultivation: Early and late sowings benefit from cloche protection.
