1. Starting Indoors
Start seeds indoors in seed-starting trays or small pots about 6 to 8 weeks before the final frost in your area.
2. Germination
Maintain consistent moisture and a warm temperature of 65-75Β°F. Seeds generally sprout within 10-14 days.
3. Hardening Off
Gradually introduce seedlings to outdoor conditions over 7 days after the danger of frost has entirely passed.
4. Transplanting
Plant outdoors in full sun, spacing them 12-18 inches apart to allow room for mature growth.
