- Prepare your planting area by turning over soil under to a depth of 8 inches. Level with a rake to remove any clumps of grass or debris.
- Sow about 6 inches apart and cover with ½ inch fine soil.
- Compress seeds lightly into the soil and keep area evenly moist. Keep the soil moist but not saturated.
- Seedlings emerge in about 7-14 days.
- Once seedlings are 2 – 4 inches tall, thin them out so that they are 12 inches apart.
