Planting Instructions:

Seed Preparation:

No special preparation is needed for Portulaca oleracea seeds.

Sowing:

Sow seeds directly outdoors after the last frost date.
Prepare the soil by raking to remove debris and loosen it.
Scatter seeds thinly over the soil surface, as they require light to germinate.
Press seeds lightly into the soil without covering them.

Germination:

Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged until seeds germinate.
Maintain a temperature of 70-85°F (21-29°C) for optimal germination.
Germination typically occurs within 7-14 days.

Transplanting:

If starting seeds indoors, transplant seedlings outdoors after the last frost when they are large enough to handle and have at least two sets of true leaves.
Space plants 6-12 inches apart in the garden or containers.

Care and Maintenance:

Water Portulaca oleracea sparingly once established, as it is drought-tolerant.
Trim back plants periodically to encourage bushy growth and continuous blooming.
Mulch around plants to help retain soil moisture and reduce weed competition.

Happy Gardening!
