Planting Instructions:

Seed Preparation:

Scarify the seeds lightly by rubbing them with sandpaper or soaking them in warm water for 24 hours to improve germination rates.

Sowing:

Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date. Use a seed-starting mix and plant seeds 1/4 inch deep.
Maintain a soil temperature of 70-75°F (21-24°C) for optimal germination.
Space seeds at least 2-3 inches apart in seed trays or pots.

Germination:

Seeds typically germinate within 14-21 days under optimal conditions.
Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged during the germination period.

Transplanting:

Transplant seedlings outdoors after the last frost date when the soil has warmed and seedlings have at least two true leaves.
Harden off seedlings by gradually exposing them to outdoor conditions over a week.
Plant seedlings 12-18 inches apart in rows spaced 3 feet apart to allow for ample growth and tuber development.

Care and Maintenance:

Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during the growing season, but avoid waterlogging.
Mulching: Mulch around the base of the plants to retain soil moisture and suppress weeds.
Support: Provide support such as trellises or stakes for the vines to climb, as Chinese yam plants can grow quite tall.
Harvesting: Tubers can be harvested in the fall after the foliage dies back, typically 6-8 months after planting. Carefully dig up the tubers to avoid damage.

Happy gardening!
