How To Grow
If starting indoors, these seeds should be sown into starter trays with a general starter mix. Press the seeds into the soil, but do not cover: light is required for germination. You can also start these seeds directly outdoors if desired: after all danger of frost has passed, sow the seeds into prepared seedbeds and press into soil. Keep seeds moist until germination. When sowing, use 3-4 seeds per plant at a spacing of 12-14 inches, and then thin to the strongest seedling per group once seedlings are established.
