Planting Instructions:

Seed Preparation:

No special preparation is required for the seeds. However, scarifying seeds (scratching the seed coat) can help improve germination if desired.
For better results, you can soak seeds in warm water for 12-24 hours before planting.

Sowing:

Sow seeds directly into the soil in early spring or fall.
Prepare the soil by loosening it and removing weeds.
Scatter seeds on the soil surface and lightly rake them in.
Space seeds about 1 inch apart, with rows 12-18 inches apart.

Germination:

Seeds typically germinate within 10-14 days under optimal conditions.
Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.

Transplanting:

Transplanting is generally not necessary as Melilotus officinalis is direct-seeded and grows well in place.
If starting seeds indoors, transplant seedlings outdoors after they have developed 2-3 true leaves and the risk of frost has passed.

Care and Maintenance:

Water regularly to maintain consistent soil moisture.
Mulch around the plants can help retain moisture and suppress weeds.
Fertilize lightly in the spring with a balanced, all-purpose fertilizer if needed.
Melilotus officinalis is relatively low-maintenance once established.
