How this fits into a home garden plan
Windows: Start outdoors Feb, Mar, Apr, Aug, Sep; start under cover Jan, Feb, Mar, Aug.
Space: Allow 45 cm between plants and 45 cm between rows; one square metre can hold about 4 plants before paths and access.
Production: Expect about 1 each per plant over roughly 21 days, so stagger plantings instead of filling the whole bed at once.

Sources And Local Review
This crop is in the starter library and still needs local SKGF review.
