How to Sow and Care for Swede
(continued - page 2)
Sowing Swedes The best time to sow swede in most areas is mid May to mid June but
if your area is warm postpone sowing to mid July.
Mark out a drill about 3cm (¾in) deep and sow the seed
thinly. If you are sowing more than one row then the rows should be 60cm
(24in) apart.
Care of Swedes
The seedlings will take about 10 days to emerge. Thin the seedlings out
to about 25cm (10in) apart. Keep them well-watered and well-weeded and
you should have no problems
