Planting / Sowing
Sow seed shallowly into well drained soil in a warm, sunny position once frost risk has passed. In warm areas, sow from early spring. In cooler areas, wait until late spring after frost risk has passed. Keep soil evenly moist during germination. For mixed planting, thin seedlings to approximately 20 to 30 cm apart, depending on the varieties present. Regular harvesting encourages continued leaf production.

Due to quarantine restrictions, TAS has an 800g limit per each seed variety and WA has a 10,000 seeds limit per variety.
