Franchi Code

[tim]

Can someone decypher the code for me?

I think it means:

Sow March-July
Harvest June-Oct

Well....those are the dates for the "blue zone" anyway.

I find the packs a bit confusing too. But I think they do it that way because the seeds are sold all over europe (and beyond?).....and thats an awful lot of languages to fit on one seed packet!

Good luck with the carrots anyway! ;)

If you live in the blue part of the map, sow March-July, harvest June - October. Bit optimistic with the early harvest?

They are the clearest instructions I've found. 

Look for our country (we are usually blue) and follow the dates for that colour code.  There are pics for sowing - for sowing in trays or direct. The instructions for the one you should do and the months and the colour codes are given, if the seeds are sown on top, that's shown, if underground, the depth and sowing distance and temperature is shown.  If they have to be thinned there's a pic for that too. Harvest is the pic of the veg itself. (with others of its type).

I've used them for years, but I can read the italian instructions, the pics and symbols are for all nationalities.

Oh, Blue - I'm half way there. Thanks for that!

I agree Asbean, clear as the driven snow.  ;D ;D ;D
