Seed Starting Instructions
When to Start: Start seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost date.

Germination: Keep soil temperatures between 70-85°F for the best germination success.
Growing Conditions
Transplanting: Move seedlings outdoors after the danger of frost has passed. Space plants 18-24 inches apart for proper growth.
Sunlight Requirements: Thrives in full sun, requiring 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily.
Watering: Keep soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Water at the base of the plant to reduce the risk of fungal diseases.
