Sow in trays, cover seeds lightly, lead and water. After the last frosts, when the plants have grown to around 10 cm, transplant them into the ground, one plant every 15 cm, in rows 20 cm apart. For direct sowing, sow in rows 20 cm apart. Once they reach 10 cm, keep one plant every 15 cm.
In mild climates, autumn sowing is possible. Harvesting will then take place the following spring.
