Care

For optimal growth, plant seeds outdoors in well-drained, fertile soil with a pH between 6.0 and 7.5. Sow seeds 1 centimeter deep, spacing plants 30-40 centimeters apart. Maintain consistent moisture and provide full sun exposure. The seeds are best started indoors 4-6 weeks before the last expected frost date or directly sown outdoors after soil warming. Thinning is recommended once seedlings develop their first true leaves.
