Packaging

Sowing method: March-July. Seeds germinate quickly; keep evenly moist (not wet) at ± 20°C. Cover seeds very thinly; fine seeds should not be covered but lightly pressed down. Place a box or dark cloth over them, as they are not light germinators. Immediately after emergence, move to light and cooler conditions.
