Seed Starting Instructions
When to Start: Begin seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost date.
How to Plant: Sow seeds 1/4 inch deep in seed-starting mix. Use a tray with bottom watering for best results to maintain consistent moisture.
Germination: Keep the soil temperature between 70-85°F for optimal germination.
Growing Conditions
Transplanting: Move seedlings outdoors after the danger of frost has passed. Space plants 18-24 inches apart to allow for proper growth.
Sunlight Requirements: These plants thrive in full sun, requiring 6-8 hours of direct sunlight per day.
Watering: Keep soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Water at the base of the plant to prevent fungal issues.
