Sow in flats or plug tray at least 5-6 weeks before target date for transplanting outside, temperatures above 65°F are preferred for germination. Transplant into larger plug tray, cell packs or small pot (3-4 inches) approximately 3-4 weeks after sowing or when at least one true leaf has developed. Maintain medium soil moisture and use a complete fertilizer after transplant. Wait to transplant outdoors until night temperatures are over 45°F and there is no threat of frost, as cold temperatures will cause severe damage. Transplant outdoors in full sun at least 2-3 feet apart, plants require staking. Water and feed with complete fertilizer regularly.
