Planting Instructions:
Seed Preparation:
Soak seeds in warm water for 24 hours to improve germination rates. Optionally, treat seeds with a fungicide to prevent fungal infections.
Sowing:
Start seeds indoors 4-6 weeks before the last expected frost date. Sow seeds 1 inch deep in seed-starting trays or pots filled with seed-starting mix. Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged.
Germination:
Maintain a temperature of 75-85°F (24-29°C) for optimal germination. Germination typically occurs within 7-14 days. Provide adequate light or place under grow lights if natural light is insufficient.
Transplanting:
Transplant seedlings outdoors after the last frost when they have at least 2-3 true leaves. Space plants 3-4 feet apart in rows 6-8 feet apart. Ensure the planting site receives full sun and has well-drained, fertile soil.
Care and Maintenance:
Provide support for vines using trellises or stakes to encourage upward growth. Water regularly to keep the soil consistently moist, especially during dry periods. Mulch around the plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Monitor for pests and diseases, and treat promptly if necessary.
