Sowing Directly in the Garden:

Direct sow seeds in average soil in full sun after all danger of frost has passed.

Prepare the soil by removing weeds and working organic matter into the top few inches of soil always helps; then level and smooth the area with a rake.

Sow seeds (sprinkle to cover the area) upon the prepared soil and cover the seeds with about ¼” of fine soil.

Firm soil lightly with your hand, water with a gentle spray. The next following days you need to lightly moisten the soil one, two or three times a day to keep the top soil lightly moist until germination. The soil needs to be lightly moist at all times until germination occurs.

 Seedlings will emerge in approximately 7-15 days. When they begin to pop up you can cut back the watering to once a day or once every other day until the seedlings become mature plants. Do the finger test of your soil if you are not sure if a plant needs water or not. Push your finger into the soil and if it is dry about ½” to an 1” deep, then it is time to give the small plants/seedlings water.

Note: None of these plants need to be chewed on by pets or people.
