How to grow
How
Sow direct where they are to grow. Cover lightly with Yates Seed Raising Mix, firm down and keep moist.
Care
Grow in sun or semi-shade. Enrich soil with organic fertiliser (such as Yates Blood & Bone or Dynamic Lifter Organic Plant Food) before planting. Feed plants regularly with Yates Thrive Soluble Plant Food. Continuous harvest promotes new growth. Protect plants from snails and slugs with Yates Blitzem. Prune hard in early spring.
Hint
Frequent picking ensures continuous supply. Leaves can be dried and used later to add flavour to cooked dishes.
