Planting Instructions:
Seed Preparation: Soak the seeds in warm water for 12-24 hours before planting to soften the hard seed coat and improve germination.
Sowing: Direct sow the seeds outdoors after the last frost date when the soil has warmed to at least 55°F (13°C). Plant seeds 1/2 inch (1.3 cm) deep and space them 10-12 inches (25-30 cm) apart. If starting indoors, sow seeds in peat pots 4-6 weeks before the last frost date. Transplant the seedlings outdoors when they have at least two true leaves and the danger of frost has passed.
Germination: Germination typically occurs within 7-14 days. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged during the germination period.
Transplanting: If starting indoors, transplant seedlings into the garden when they are 2-3 inches (5-7.5 cm) tall and all danger of frost has passed. Harden off the seedlings by gradually exposing them to outdoor conditions for a week before transplanting.
Care and Maintenance:
Water regularly, especially during dry periods, but avoid overwatering as nasturtiums prefer slightly dry conditions.
Provide support such as a trellis or fence for the climbing varieties to encourage vertical growth.
Deadhead spent flowers to promote continuous blooming and prevent self-seeding.
Monitor for pests such as aphids and treat with insecticidal soap or a strong water spray if necessary.
Harvest flowers and leaves for culinary use as needed, ensuring to pick them in the morning when they are freshest.
Happy Gardening!
