Tips for striking seed

  • Use a quality seed raising mix - don't use potting mix as it contains fertiliser and lumpy bits, which hinders germination
  • Before sowing the seed, wet the mix and let the trays drain
  • Once seed has been sown, spray wet with a mist spray
  • If you are sowing a few packets, do remember to label them - you will forget when you go to transplant
  • Once planted, place somewhere warm, once germinated seeds need plenty of light
  • Sow seeds every two to three weeks for continuous harvesting.
  • Sow extra, not every seed will germinate
