Seed Starting Instructions
When to Start: Start seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost date.
How to Plant: Sow seeds 1/4 inch deep in seed-starting mix. Bottom-water using a tray for consistent moisture.
Germination: Keep soil temperatures between 70-85°F for optimal results.
Growing Conditions

Sunlight Requirements: Thrives in full sun, needing 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily.
