Planting Instructions:

Seed Preparation: No specific preparation required, but soaking seeds in water for 12-24 hours before planting can help improve germination rates.

Sowing:

Plant seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date or directly outdoors after the last frost has passed. Sow seeds thinly on the surface of moist, well-draining seed starting mix and lightly press them into the soil. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.

Germination:

Germination typically occurs within 7-14 days under optimal conditions of soil moisture and temperature (around 65-70°F).

Transplanting:

Transplant seedlings into individual pots once they have developed their first true leaves. Harden off seedlings by gradually exposing them to outdoor conditions over the course of 7-10 days before transplanting them into the garden bed. Space plants 12-18 inches apart in the garden bed.

Care and Maintenance:

Provide regular water, especially during dry periods, but avoid overwatering to prevent root rot. Deadhead spent flowers regularly to encourage continuous blooming. Protect plants from pests such as aphids and spider mites by using insecticidal soap or neem oil as needed.

Happy gardening!
