Sowing
Start indoors in seed compost. Light-germinating: moisten the soil first and press the seeds gently onto the surface. Transparent cover with air holes, or air it out regularly. 20–25 °C until germination, then bright and slightly cooler. Plant out after hardening off when frost risk is over — give it a warm spot, greenhouse or similar.
