Planting Instructions

Seed Preparation:

Stratification: For better germination, it is recommended to stratify the seeds. Place seeds in a moist paper towel, inside a plastic bag, and refrigerate for 4-6 weeks before planting.
Sowing:
When to Sow: Sow seeds in early spring or fall.

How to Sow:

Outdoor Sowing: Directly sow seeds on the soil surface in the desired location. Press seeds lightly into the soil without covering them, as they need light to germinate.
Indoor Sowing: Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date. Use a seed-starting mix and surface sow the seeds, pressing them lightly into the soil.

Germination:

Temperature                        : Maintain a soil temperature of 65-70°F (18-21°C).
Time to Germinate             : Seeds typically germinate in 2-3 weeks.
Light                                    : Provide ample light by placing the trays in a sunny window or under grow lights.
Transplanting:
Timing                                : Transplant seedlings outdoors after the danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed.
Spacing                              : Space seedlings about 6 inches apart to allow room for growth.

Care and Maintenance:

Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, but not waterlogged. Water regularly, especially during dry periods.
Mulching: Apply a thin layer of mulch around the plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
