- Sow Apr – Jun thinly 1 cm deep with 45 cm between rows
- Best results generally from a May sowing.
Swedes do best in well dug soils which have not been recently manured - As seedlings develop, gradually thin them until about 20 cm apart. Do not transplant.
- Keep soil moist until seedlings are established.
- Very hardy and will withstand frost. Lift as required or all together for storage in dry sand until needed.
