Planting Instructions: Seed Preparation:
Soak seeds in lukewarm water for 6-8 hours before planting to enhance germination. Sowing: Timing: Sow seeds in early spring or late summer for a fall harvest. Depth: Sow seeds 1 cm (0.5 inches) deep. Spacing: Space seeds 30 cm (12 inches) apart in rows that are 45 cm (18 inches) apart. Germination: Temperature: Ideal soil temperature for germination is 10-24°C (50-75°F). Duration: Seeds typically germinate within 7-14 days. Transplanting: Timing: If starting indoors, transplant seedlings when they have at least two true leaves and the danger of frost has passed. Spacing: Maintain the same spacing as direct sowing (30 cm apart in rows 45 cm apart). Care and Maintenance: Watering: Keep soil consistently moist, but not waterlogged. Weeding: Keep the area free of weeds to reduce competition for nutrients and water. Harvesting: Begin harvesting outer leaves when they are large enough to use, allowing inner leaves to continue growing for multiple harvests throughout the season.
