Sow undercover in early spring, either in individual modules or in pots large and deep enough to grow a number of seedlings. Alternatively sow in a well-prepared seed bed undercover or – once temperatures are above 10C – outdoors. Transplant them after around 10 weeks, once the seedlings have reached about 20cm high and up to pencil thickness. Make holes made with a dibber, spaced about 20cm each way in well composted soil, and put one plant in each. If necessary you can trim the roots and leaves slightly to stop them trailing. Keep well watered.
