This variety is extremely tasty and succulent throughout the spring, when other vegetable harvests are scarce, providing you with a healthy and delicious addition to your meals even when other vegetables are out of season.

Sowing instructions:
Sow outdoors thinly in a seed bed, 1.5cm (1/2") deep directly into finely prepared soil which has already been watered. Seedlings usually appear in 14-21 days. Water well until plants are established. Transplant 60cm (2') apart both ways when seedlings are about 10cm (4") tall. Plant firmly and water well.
Or sow indoors 0.5cm (1/4") deep, in a tray of compost. Water well and place in a cold frame or unheated greenhouse. Keep moist. Transplant 5cm (2") apart to other trays when large enough to handle. Gradually accustom young plants to outside conditions (avoid frosts), before planting out.

Cut when shoots approx. 15cm (6") long. Harvest regularly to encourage further development.
