WHEN TO SOW March to September

WHERE TO SOW For baby leaves sow thinly from April to September , 0.5cm (1/4in) deep in rows 25-30cm (10-12in) apart. Sow seed in succession every 2-3 weeks for a continuous supply of fresh baby leaves. WHAT TO DO NEXT Keep soil moist and cut leaves from each plant leaving some leaves on each so they re-grow. You will often get 3-4 cuttings per plant.
