Growing Notes
- Direct sow 10–20 mm deep once the soil is workable; keep evenly moist through germination.
- Use 25–30 cm spacing and avoid rich, high-nitrogen feeding, which encourages leaves at the expense of flowers.
- Allow the compact or trailing growth type room to spread without crowding neighbouring plants.
- Full sun gives the best flowering in cool to mild weather; afternoon relief can help during extreme inland heat.
- Only eat flowers or leaves when the crop is correctly identified and has not been treated with products unsuitable for edible crops; do not rely on nasturtiums as complete pest control.
