Planting Instruction

How To Sow: Choose a sheltered, well drained site in full sun. Sow directly where to grow in a warm, well prepared seedbed after all danger of frost has passed. Sow seeds 15cm apart in rows 60cm apart. Cover to a depth of 3cm.
Seedling Care: Keep seedbed or trays evenly moist during the germination period of 7-14 days. The soil temperature must be warm at all times. Apply McGregor's FruitMax 2 weeks after germination for healthier plans and a maximum crop.
