Hardiness: -10 degrees Fahrenheit

Growing Instructions: 1. Keep seeds in a cool, dry location until ready to plant. 2. Soak seeds in 70 degree water for 24 hours to increase rate of germination. 3. Fill a seedling tray with pre-moistened seed-starting mix and sow seeds 1/4"-1/2" deep. Give the seeds a spritz with water to settle them into the soil. If you want to increase heat and moisture, cover with plastic wrap (poke a few holes in plastic) and remove wrap when seedlings emerge. 4. Place in a warm (65-68 degrees F), well-lit area where seeds will receive a few hours of direct sunlight each day. Frequently check your seeds to make sure soil is damp, but not very wet or soggy. 5. Germination will occur in about 10-14 days. Some seeds will sprout all at once; others may take longer to come out of dormancy. Be patient and don't discard your seeds prematurely! 6. Transfer to larger containers as needed and acclimate to direct sunlight gradually over the next few weeks.
