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 and use bottom watering to maintain consistent moisture.
Germination: Maintain soil temperatures between 75-90°F for successful germination.
Growing Conditions
Transplanting: Move seedlings outdoors after frost danger has passed. Space plants 18-24 inches apart to ensure proper airflow and growth.
Sunlight Requirements: Thrives in full sun, needing 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily.
Watering: Keep soil evenly moist but avoid waterlogging. Water at the base of the plant to prevent leaf diseases.
