Planting Instructions
Planting Season
- Early Spring: Start indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost or sow directly outdoors once the soil temperature reaches 55°F (13°C).
Seed Preparation
- Stratification: Soak the seeds overnight in water to help soften the seed coat and improve germination.
- Pre-Germination: Some gardeners recommend chilling the seeds for a few weeks in the fridge before sowing for better germination.
Planting Details

- Spacing: Space plants 3 feet apart to allow for healthy growth and large bud formation.

Watering and Care

- Fertilizer: Apply a balanced fertilizer or compost in the spring and again after the first harvest to promote healthy growth and abundant yields.
- Maintenance: Remove any damaged or dead leaves to keep the plant healthy. Prune spent blooms to prevent the plant from becoming too leggy.
