• Gently mist with water once planted.
• Indirect sunlight is best for germination. once the first set of leaves forms move into sunlight.
• Keep soil moist, if the seed dries out then germination will cease and the seed will no longer be viable.
• Plant +-20cm apart in the garden when plants approach +- 8 cm tall.

Starting Seeds Indoors

If you are planning to start your seeds indoors, do so as early as 4-6 weeks before the last frost. Keep in a well lit area and remember to check moisture levels daily.

Harden off your seedling by moving them outside for a few hours everyday for +- 1 week prior to planting them out in the garden. Remember to bring them back inside at night.
