Germination Instructions

Indoors, sow seed at a depth of 2cm in 7.5cm pots of sowing compost. Place in a propagator or seal container inside a plastic bag at a temperature of 20-25C until germination which takes 5-7 days. Once germinated, grow courgettes on in cooler conditions until all risk of frost has passed and courgette plants are large enough to be transplanted. Gradually acclimatise them to outdoor conditions over 7 - 10 days before planting courgettes outdoors in rich fertile, well drained soil in full sun at a distance of 90cm.

Alternatively direct sow courgettes outdoors at a depth of 2cm and a distance of 90cm apart.
