Outdoors: sow thinly, April-June where they are to crop, 2.5cm (1") deep, directly into finely-prepared, fertile, well-drained soil, which has already been watered. Provide cloche protection or delay sowing if soil is still cold. Allow 30cm (1') between rows. Seedlings usually appear in 7-21 days. Thin seedlings to 45cm (18") apart. Water well until plants are established. Two or three sowings will provide a successional crop.
Pick regularly to encourage further pods to form. Top and tail and boil whole pods.
