Sowing method: First, 6-8 weeks in a warm and humid spot (seed swells), then 4-8 weeks in the refrigerator, an hour of frost is beneficial (germination hormones are activated), sometimes the seeds already germinate in the refrigerator. Then, move to a warmer spot, but not warmer than 10° C. If germination does not occur, repeat the cycle. Sowing directly into the garden is also possible; just let winter pass, and germination will occur in spring.
