Growing Information: Starting indoors is most reliable method. Sow 10-12 weeks before planting out. Light is required for germination, therefore, do not cover seeds or only cover lightly with fine vermiculite. Mist soil/seeds to avoid covering accidentally. Transplant seedlings after the first true leaves appear. Harden-off transplants outside only after the last frost has passed.
