WHERE TO SOW
Early sowings in pots or trays 2cm apart under glass at 16°C. May sowings direct in cold frames or under cloches. Early June sowings direct into the growing site 2cm deep, 2 or 3 seeds in each position 120cm apart.
WHAT TO DO NEXT
Glasshouse and under cover seedlings should be gradually hardened off once they have developed the first pair of rough leaves, and transplanted to the growing site in late May 120cm apart. Outdoor sowings should be tinned to one seedling as soon as possible.
MATURITY
July onwards
HANDY TIP
A good variety for winter storage. Let fruits ripen on plants, pick before frost. Store in a cool but frost free room.
