Rocket - Runaway
Runaway is attractive, with deeply serrated leaves like a wild rocket. It is fast and vigorous growing, it can be sown close for baby leaf or harvested as mature plants. It has its own distinctive flavour which is tangy and peppery, but not bitter.
Sow outdoors thinly, from March to September, where they are to crop, 2.5cm deep, directly into finely-prepared, fertile, well-drained soil, which has already been watered. Allow 25cm between rows. Seedlings usually appear in 7-21 days. Keep moist. Harvest unthinned as baby leaves, or thin to 10cm apart for mature plants. Or, sow indoors, from October to March, to grow in a tunnel or greenhouse. Sow into cells in trays of compost in gentle warmth. Transplant to borders or large pots when approx. 7.5cm tall. Keep moist. Harvest all year round.
