Sow indoors for surest results, February-April, 0.5cm (“) deep, in trays of compost. Water well and place in a warm position. A temperature of 15-20C (60-68F) is ideal. Keep moist. Seedlings usually appear in 14-21 days. Transplant seedlings, 5cm (2”) apart, to other trays when large enough to handle (always hold by a leaf, never by the stem).
