Soil tip:

Culture advice:

1. Sows: Sow in place from late July to October, on the fly or, preferably, in 20 cm distant lines.
2. Thinning: Clear if necessary. Protect the later seedlings through a (plastic) tunnel before the first frosts to prolong the harvest in the spring.
3. Harvest: Harvest from September to March.
