Growing Info

• When to Plant: Sow outdoors after all danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed. Seeds may also be started indoors about 4 weeks before planting out.
• Planting Depth: Sow approximately ¼ inch deep.
• Germination: Usually about 3–5 days at 80–85°F, or around 5–7 days at slightly cooler temperatures.
• Spacing: Space plants approximately 9–12 inches apart for good airflow and strong flower production.
• Sunlight: Grow in full sun.
• Soil: Plant in fertile, well-draining soil rich in organic matter.
• Watering: Water deeply near the soil line and allow the foliage to remain as dry as possible.
• Pinching: Pinching the first bud or bloom encourages stronger branching and additional flowering stems.
• Succession Planting: Sow additional plantings about every 2 weeks for a longer cutting season.
