It’s easy to sow the seeds:

  • plant directly in the ground, two or three seeds in a shallow seed hole.
  • Space them about 1 foot (30 cm) apart.
  • Cover with a thin layer of potting soil, about 1/4th inch (0.5 cm).
  • When they sprout, wait for several pairs of leaves to appear. Thin out the weaker ones to leave only one.
  • If there are many slugs
  •  or snails, wait for the plants to have at least 4 pairs of leaves before thinning or transplanting.
