How:
|
Direct sow seeds thinly in a drill 1cm deep in rows 25cm apart. Thin seedlings to 20-25cm apart. May need support with canes or netting. Sow every 3-4 weeks for successional flowering. Can also be sown under cover in individual pots and transplanted out when risk of frost has passed. Dill does not like root disturbance so be very careful when transplanting - root trainers are ideal. Plant every 20-25cm in rows 25cm apart.
