Features
Use free draining soil well intergrated with compost or good quality potting mix when growing in pots. A good technique is to sow the seed, at 2-3cm in depth, directly into small mounds of compost that will ensure adequate nutrition and drainage. Hand pollination recommended. Nasturtium is a great companion plant, with best food partners being dill, mint and fritters!
When to plant (see zone map to find your zone):
Zone 1: October - December
Zone 2: September - December
Zone 3: August - February
Zone 4: February - November

Brand story
Australia has diverse climatic zones from the tropical far north to the cold of Tasmania so there may be some tweaking for where you live. In general, the cooler months with less harsh sun is the time for:
- beans, broad beans and peas
- bulbs like onion, shallots, garlic
- Brassicas like broccoli, broccolini, cauliflower
- tomatoes, eggplant
- root vegetables like radish, beetroot, turnip and potato
- spinach, salad greens, silverbeet
- herbs, chives, coriander, parsley.
MOST IMPORTANT TIP: Just do it! Don't get caught up in not knowing what to do. Put some seeds in pots in a sunny spot and give it a go. Learn as you grow. Keep the water up and fertilise fortnightly with liquid seaweed.

This has been my most successful plant (living in the tropics). She is a bit of a sun hog and tries to take over the whole garden but has produced lots of delicious zucchini.
