Growing Instructions from Seeds

Sowing Time:
For the plains of Pakistan, sow seeds preferably during October and November.

How to Sow:

1. Use a light, loose and well-draining seed-starting mixture.

2. Moisten the growing medium before sowing.

3. Scatter the seeds thinly over the surface.

4. Cover them with only a very thin layer of fine soil or growing medium. Avoid deep sowing.

5. Water gently with a fine spray so the seeds are not displaced.

6. Keep the medium consistently lightly moist, but never waterlogged.

7. Place the container in a bright, well-ventilated location.

8. Once seedlings are established, thin or transplant them carefully to provide adequate spacing.

9. Gradually provide good sunlight as plants develop.

10. Avoid excessive watering and heavy fertilizer, as these can encourage excessive leafy growth.

Recommended Growing Conditions:

• Light: Good sunlight to bright conditions

• Soil: Fertile, loose and well-draining

• Water: Moderate; keep evenly moist without waterlogging

• Containers: Suitable for pots and grow bags with proper drainage

• Climate: Performs best during Pakistan's cooler growing season

Important: Germination and plant performance depend on temperature, growing medium, moisture, seed handling and local environmental conditions.
