Planting Instructions Seed Preparation Soak Seeds: Soak the seeds in warm water for 24 hours to enhance germination. Prepare Soil: Ensure the soil is well-drained and rich in organic matter. You can use a seed starting mix or prepare your own with equal parts of garden soil, compost, and sand. Sowing Timing: Start seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last expected frost date. Containers: Use seed trays or small pots. Fill them with the prepared soil mix. Planting Depth: Sow seeds 1/8 inch deep in the soil. Spacing: Space seeds about 2 inches apart. Germination Temperature: Maintain a temperature of 70-75°F (21-24°C) for optimal germination. Moisture: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Light: Place the seed trays in a well-lit area or under grow lights. Transplanting Timing: Transplant seedlings outdoors after the last frost when they are about 2-3 inches tall and have at least two sets of true leaves. Spacing: Space plants 12-18 inches apart in the garden. Location: Choose a sunny spot with well-drained soil. Care and Maintenance Mulching: Apply a layer of mulch around the plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Pruning: Deadhead spent blooms to encourage continuous flowering. Support: Provide support if needed, as mature plants can be top-heavy.
