Growing Information
Days to germination

Direct sowing
Recommended. Sow as early as the ground can be worked, covering the seed with 1/8" of fine soil, since it needs darkness. Thin at the first true leaves.
Starting indoors
Sow 4–6 weeks ahead of your last frost straight into the final container or jumbo plugs, as plants dislike root disturbance. Cover the seed. Transplant carefully once true leaves appear.

8–12".

Rich, moist, free-draining sandy soil.
Light
Full sun.
Harvest
Cut when about half the flowers are open.
