Sowing Depth: Sow about one-eighth inch deep and cover only lightly with fine seed-starting mix.

Spacing: Space plants about ten to fourteen inches apart for airflow and branching.

Germination: Mild warmth and even moisture commonly support germination in about seven to twenty-one days.

Care Tips: Avoid soggy soil, maintain airflow, and pinch young plants if fuller branching is desired.
