Medium-earlyAdditional information
Open ground direct sowing (minimum surface soil temperature 14-16°C), in seed trays directly or with transplanting, in soil blocks or pots using a moist but not soggy substrate. Germination temperature 23-25°C (2-3 days). Transplanting after cotyledon unfolding. Growing conditions: night 14-15°C min, day 16-20°C min.
Gradually aerate the nursery to ensure the seedlings don't get leggy and to harden them off before planting (e.g. by finishing growing them outdoors). Growing period: 20-30 days depending on the season and soil block size. Using seedlings results in an earlier harvest.
