Simply fill a 9cm (3 1/2") pot with compost, leaving a 1.5cm (1/2") gap from the top of the pot for easy watering later on. Place the mat on the compost and firm down gently. Cover with a fine layer of compost, water well. Place in a warm position, a temperature of 15-20oC (60-68oF) is ideal. Keep moist. Plants can then be grown on a cool,light windowsill.

  • Planting position: Full sun
  • If seedlings become too overcrowded weaker seedlings can be carefully removed and transplanted if desired. Leaves may be dried or frozen but for best results use fresh.

  • Pack size: 5 x 8cm Mats
  • Sow by: JAN-DEC
