Best below 70°F. Utilize shade and frequent misting to keep trays cooled below 75°F (25°C) during germination.
Transplant Details
8" - 10" apart in a grid, and mini heads as close as 6" in a grid.
Direct Sow Details
Seeds can germinate well in soils as low as 40°F (4°C) but often poorly above 75°F (24°C). Sow 4–6 seeds/inch in rows at least 2" apart. Cover lightly to 1/8" and firm gently. Dry soil must be watered to ensure coolness and moisture for uniform germination.
