Plants have an erect open habit for ease of picking, producing slightly speckled, mid green cylindrical fruits with a glossy finish. Early to set fruit and will continue to crop prolifically throughout the summer.
Sow April to May. Sow seed, 1cm (½in) deep in 7.5cm (3in) pots of free draining compost. Place in a propagator or seal container inside a polythene bag and place at 20-25C (68-77F) until after germination which takes 7-10 days. Do not exclude light, as this helps germination.
Can also be sown direct outdoors once the soil has warmed. Sow 2 seeds every 60cm (24in) and thin out to the best seedling.
