Direct seed (recommended) - In early spring after last frost (sow in the fall in the South). Sow seed thinly in rows, covering lightly. Make 2-3 successive sowings, 2 weeks apart for a continuous summer harvest. Transplant - Sow 4-6 weeks before planting out. When first true leaves appear, transplant into larger containers. Harden off and transplant outdoors after last frost. Tips: chill seed at 5-8°C for 1-2 weeks prior to sowing in the greenhouse. Cooler temperatures of 14-17°C are best for seedling establishment. Support may be needed if grown in windy areas.
