Growing On Plant 5cm apart into trays of compost when seedlings are large enough to handle. Gradually accustom to cooler conditions before planting out from April onwards, allowing about 30cm between plants. Sowing Outdoors Rake soil to provide a firm, even surface. Sow seeds thinly in pre-watered soil, lightly covering them with a little more soil. Keep moist until seedlings appear and as required in dry spells. When large enough to handle, thin seedlings to allow their development and to prevent overcrowding. Advice Calendula petals are edible and make a colourful addition to salads.
