• Spread the soaked seeds densely and evenly across the surface and gently press them into the growing medium.
• Keep the seeds consistently moist while they germinate, ensuring good drainage and avoiding standing water.
• Once shoots emerge, provide plenty of bright light to encourage sturdy, healthy growth.
• Water as needed to keep the growing medium moist but not saturated, with bottom watering preferred once shoots are established.
• Harvest with clean scissors just above the growing medium once the shoots have reached the desired size.
