Sow seeds 1\/4 inch deep in seed-starting mix, keeping the soil warm and consistently moist. Germination typically occurs in 10-14 days. Once seedlings have two sets of true leaves, transplant them into larger pots or harden them off for garden planting after the danger of frost has passed. Space plants 18-24 inches apart in full sun and well-drained soil.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWater regularly to keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Mulch around plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Fertilize lightly when plants begin to flower.
