Seed Preparation:

Pre-Soaking: Soak seeds in water for 2-4 hours before planting to enhance germination.

Spacing: Plant seeds 1 inch deep and 12-18 inches apart in rows or hills.
Location: Choose a sunny spot with well-drained soil.
Germination:

Temperature: Maintain soil temperature between 70-85°F (21-29°C) for optimal germination.
Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.
Duration: Seeds typically germinate within 7-14 days.
Transplanting:

Timing: If starting indoors, transplant seedlings outdoors after they have 2-3 true leaves and when the soil temperature is consistently warm.
Spacing: Space plants 18-24 inches apart to allow for mature growth.
Hardening Off: Gradually acclimate seedlings to outdoor conditions before transplanting.
Care and Maintenance:

Watering: Water regularly, especially during dry periods, to keep the soil evenly moist.
Mulching: Apply mulch around plants to retain soil moisture and control weeds.
Support: No special support is needed as these plants grow bushily.
