.     Start indoors in a warm, well-lighted area from Mar to late May for Jul to Oct harvests. Sow seeds ¼” deep in good compost. Keep evenly moist. Seedlings emerge in 5-8 days at 70º F. They do best covered lightly with soil. Alternatively can be sow directly outside.
·         Transplant seedlings outside 2-3 weeks before your last frost date. They grow best at 55º to 65º F. Do not let seedlings for planting out become more that 5 weeks old because older seedlings do not mature well transplanted.
