Planting Instructions
Planting Instructions: Sprinkle seeds on the soil. Cover very lightly with a thin layer of Miracle-Gro Seed Starting Mix 1/16" and water gently. Once seedlings have a few true leaves, pot them individually into small pots. Poor germination can be caused by seeds covered too deeply, wrong temperature, or overwatering.
Plant Thinning: Thin plants to 18 to 24" apart, rows about 24 to 36" apart.
Soil Facts: Requires well-prepared soil. Prepare the bed with moderately fertile soil. Avoid heavy, wet, or rich soil, as poor drainage is the main cause of failure. Amend heavy clay with grit or sand.
Fertilizer: Use a general-purpose fertilizer when preparing the soil.
Germination: 14 to 21 days (sometimes longer) at 60 to 70 F. Requires 16 weeks for full maturity.
