HOW TO GROW:
Transplanting:
Start seeds 4–6 weeks before the last frost. Barely cover the seeds, as they need light to germinate. Bottom water or mist gently to avoid displacing them. Harden off by growing at 17–18°C and transplant outdoors after the last frost.

Direct Seeding:
After the last frost, sow seeds thinly and barely cover. Once seedlings have developed their first true leaves, thin to 12–15" apart.
