Germination Notes for Growers
Preparation: No pre-treatment required, though soaking for 12–24 hours can speed germination.
Sowing: Sow thinly on a well-draining seed mix and cover lightly with a fine layer of soil.
Optimum Temperature: 65–75°F (18–24°C).
Germination Period: 21–35 days.
Notes: Keep the soil evenly moist until seedlings emerge. Bright light improves early growth and prevents stretching. If desired, transplant seedlings to individual cells once they develop two true leaves.
