How to Sow Your Seeds
Start your Salad Seed Set indoors on a sunny windowsill or in containers placed in a warm spot, as these annuals prefer well-drained soil and good sunlight. This set is ideal for window boxes, balconies, or garden beds where you can provide some attentive care.
Sowing
Sow the seeds thinly in warm, damp, well-drained soil, lightly covering them to encourage germination. Keeping the soil moist and warm will support successful sprouting of these unusual salad leaves.
Growing
Once seedlings emerge, thin them out to give each plant enough space to grow comfortably, especially if using a 30 cm pot or similar container. This thinning helps develop healthy leaves and prevents overcrowding in your chosen location.
Plant care
Maintain consistent moisture by watering regularly but avoid waterlogging the soil to keep the roots healthy. Regularly harvest the leaves to encourage fresh growth and consider succession sowing to enjoy a continuous supply of unique salad leaves throughout the season.
