Features: The plants produce high yields of uniform globes that have an excellent flavour
Sowing Guide - Indoors: Sow indoors for larger bulbs, 0.5cm (¼”) deep in a tray of seed compost. Water well and maintain a temperature of 15-20°C (60-68°F). Keep moist. Transplant 5cm (2”) apart to other trays when large enough to handle. Gradually accustom young plants to outside conditions (avoid frosts), before planting out 23cm (9”) apart.
Sowing Guide - Outdoors: Sow outdoors thinly where they are to crop, 1.5cm (½”) deep directly into finely prepared soil which has already been watered. Allow 30cm (1’) between rows. Seedlings usually appear in 14-28 days. Thin plants to 23cm (9”) apart. Transplant thinnings or use in salads.
Soil Type: Well dug, fertile soil
Hints & Tips: The less pungent, sweet flesh is extremely versatile and ideal for using raw or cooked.
