Notes

Tagasaste. I think the seeds should be sown in Autumn, but I think Spring should work. I put the seeds into boiling water for one minute first, then left them in the water to cool.

Experimental: this feature is new and might be flaky. These dates are estimates from 25 km weather-model data, not readings from a station at your garden, so a cold spot can be colder. They may be wrong, so check your national weather service and ask local growers before relying on them.
