Seed Starting Instructions:

For Direct Sowing:

1. Timing: Sow outdoors after the last frost, when the soil has warmed.
2. Planting: Scatter seeds on the soil surface and press down lightly—do not cover, as seeds need light to germinate.
3. Watering: Keep soil moist during germination, which takes 7–14 days.
4. Spacing: Thin seedlings to 12–18 inches apart once they’re a few inches tall.

For Tray Starting:

1. Timing: Start seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before the last frost date.
2. Planting: Sow seeds on the surface of a seed-starting mix and press gently to ensure contact; do not cover.
3. Light & Watering: Place trays in a bright location or under grow lights and keep the soil moist.
4. Transplanting: Once seedlings have 2–3 true leaves and the risk of frost has passed, harden them off and plant outdoors, spacing them 12–18 inches apart.
