Planting Instructions
Seed Preparation:
Soak seeds in warm water for 6-8 hours to enhance germination.
Drain and dry seeds on a paper towel.
Sowing:
Fill seed trays or pots with a well-draining seed-starting mix.
Sow seeds on the surface and lightly press them into the soil. Do not cover seeds as they require light to germinate.
Mist the soil lightly with water.
Germination:
Place the seed trays or pots in a warm, sunny location with temperatures between 70-75°F (21-24°C).
Maintain moisture by misting the soil regularly.
Seeds should germinate within 7-14 days.
Transplanting:
Once seedlings have 2-3 true leaves and are sturdy enough to handle, transplant them into individual pots or directly into the garden.
Space plants 12-18 inches (30-45 cm) apart to allow for growth.
Choose a location with full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil.
Care and Maintenance:
Water regularly, keeping the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.
Pinch back the tips of the plants to encourage bushier growth and more branching.
Mulch around the plants to retain soil moisture and suppress weeds.
Harvest leaves as needed, preferably in the morning when the essential oils are most concentrated.
Watch for pests such as aphids and treat them with insecticidal soap if necessary.
Cut back the plants at the end of the growing season to encourage new growth in the spring.
