Product details
How
Sow direct in a sunny, well drained position. Cover, firm down and moisten. Thin after 4 weeks. Sow successive crops at 4-5 weekly intervals.
Care
Cultivate soil well before sowing as deep, well-drained soils give best results. Mix Yates® Thrive® Natural Blood & Bone into soil before sowing to help ensure a good crop. Feed regularly with Yates® Thrive® All Purpose Soluble Fertiliser. Protect from snails and slugs.
Hint
To aid germination, maintain even soil moisture by laying a plank of wood over row. Remove after germination.

Store in a cool dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children and pets.
