Planner guidance
How this fits into a home garden plan
Windows: Start outdoors May, Jun, Jul, Aug; start under cover not listed.
Space: Allow 30 cm between plants and 30 cm between rows; one square metre can hold about 11 plants before paths and access.
Production: Expect about 0.4 kg per plant over roughly 28 days, so stagger plantings instead of filling the whole bed at once.
Planner notes
- Fast crop: sow small batches every 2-3 weeks while it is in season.
- Good for compact beds and teaching gardens because it produces quickly.

Sources And Local Review
This crop is in the starter library and still needs local SKGF review.
Future idea: this independent source-combined library could support search traffic, donations, and careful seed/garden-supply sponsorship conversations.
