How to grow this plant abundantly at home.

Step 4: Planting the Seeds or Seedlings

FROM SEEDS:

1. Fill a seed tray or small pots with moistened soil.
2. Sow the seeds about 1/4 inch deep and lightly cover them with soil.
3. Mist with water and cover with a plastic dome or plastic wrap until they germinate (usually 5–10 days).
4. Once the seedlings have two sets of true leaves, transplant them into larger pots or your garden.

FROM SEEDLINGS:

1. Space them 12 to 18 inches apart in the ground or 1 plant per 6–8 inch pot.
2. Gently loosen the roots and plant at the same depth they were in their original container.
3. Firm the soil and water thoroughly.
