Indoor Sowing
- Sow seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last expected frost date.
- Fill seed trays with seed starting mix and sow seeds 1/4 inch deep, 2-3 seeds per cell.
- Keep the soil moist and at a consistent temperature of 70-80°F.
- Seedlings should emerge in 7-14 days.
- Once seedlings have developed their first true leaves, thin them to one per cell.
- Transplant seedlings outdoors after the last expected frost date and when the soil has warmed up to at least 60°F.
Outdoor Sowing
- Sow seeds directly into the garden after the last expected frost date and when the soil has warmed up to at least 60°F.
- Choose a sunny location with well-draining soil that has been amended with compost.
- Sow seeds 1/4 inch deep and 2-3 inches apart in rows spaced 24-36 inches apart.
- Keep the soil moist and weed-free.
- Thin seedlings when they are 3-4 inches tall, leaving 18-24 inches between plants.
Growing

- Water consistently to keep soil evenly moist but not waterlogged.
- Fertilize once a month with a balanced fertilizer.
