Sowing Information
Choose a seed tray or empty food container (having made holes in the base). Pour in some seed compost and level to around half tray depth. Water and when drained, scatter some seed evenly across the surface, approximately 2.5cm (1″) apart, cover with further compost to fill the tray and firm the surface gently. Place on a well lit windowsill but avoid direct sunlight. Maintain moisture levels and harvest with scissors 2.5cm (1″) above compost level when the young plants are 13cm (5″) high.
It may be possible to take a further harvest some 3-4 weeks later from the re-growth of the plants.
Sowing to Cropping: 3 weeks.
