    I have grown it from seed for the first time in cells, have roughly five seeds a cell, can I thin these out or transplant them as individual seedlings to other cells? They look very fragile!
    Best wishes

    Andrewo you will need to transplant them. I always try to sow my seeds one per pot or one per cell or if I use a seed tray my father has made me a piece of wood the size of the seed tray with 24 evenly spaced wooden prongs on it that I just press into the compost and I end up with a tray of compost with 24 holes in it ready to drop the seeds in. I prefer to allow the seedlings to grow in their own space undisturbed until I am ready for planting them out.

      yes, they are very fragile, and I have found take a long time, even under fleece to look like they will develop in time. Nice veg!

        That's a great idea!! Why didn't I think of that before? I'll get my other half to make one for me...
