garden bed of garden soil, ideally mixed with compost or organic matter. Seeds should be sown roughly 5mm deep and at least 5cm apart.

Generously water with a sprinkle or mister.

Keep regularly watered for the next week or two
Step 3
Jew’s Mallow shoots will grow quickly and be ready to harvest/prune for eating once they reach around 30cm high.
