Cultivation advice

Sowing

It should be pre-cultivated indoors in March-April. Make sure the seeds are kept moist. Set out the plants in March-April in a dry and sunny place after the risk of frost is over. 

Spacing

Keep 15-25 cm between the plants.

Harvest

Pick the young leaves for pizza, tomato dishes etc. By pinching off the tops the plant keeps young and beautiful. For drying, break the stems 5 cm from the base, shortly before bloom. If the plant is healthy it will survive total cut down several times during a season.
