WHERE TO SOW: Sow seeds 0.5cm (¼") deep, in small trays of compost and lightly cover the seeds with a sprinkling of compost , and place at a temperature of 15-20°C . Alternatively sow direct outside in April and May into shallow seed drills.
WHAT TO DO NEXT: Prick out seedlings individually to 7cm (3") pots, once large enough to handle. Grow on in cooler conditions , then gradually harden off plants in a cold frame before planting out after risk of frost has passed.

Direct sown seedlings can be thinned to 15-30cm (6-12in) apart and harvested as required.
HANDY TIP: Should be added to cooked dishes only minutes before use to retain the strength of flavour.
