Growing at a glance…
Will take roughly 7-14 days to germinate. Planting each seed rougly 2 inches below soil level, spacing each row about 18 inches apart. Ensure the location is nice and sunny. If you prefer an early crop sow mid-spring, rougly 6 weeks before the last expected frost in your area. Otherwise sow outdoors, spacing them 4-6 inches between each seed when the soil has warmed. These plants prefer warm conditions and may struggle in the cold ground. Will not need staking to grow.
