It all Greek to me - Greek Cress
« on: April 27, 2008, 22:52:08 »
Has anyone ever grown Greek Cress? I got some from Chiltern Seeds and am not quite sure how to treat it. Do I grow it like cress on tissue paper or do I sow it in the ground?

Well the thomson and morgan site suggests sowing in soil, so I guess you treat it like any salad green ...

I do it in the soil, mark a shape out with a seed tray, sow the seed and cover it with a clear plastic lid, that way, I know it's not weeds, I also add some mustard seed, can't remember whether that's first or not  ;D
