• Prefers well-drained soil, rich in organic matter.

• pH: slightly acidic to neutral (6.0–7.0).

• Loosen soil and mix compost before sowing.

3. Sowing Seeds

• Space seeds 12 inches (30 cm) apart.

• Keep soil moist until germination.

4. Watering

• Water regularly, especially in dry weather.

• Avoid waterlogging.

6. Growth & Care

• Plants grow up to 2–3 feet tall.

• Mulch around plants to retain moisture.

• Pinch off young shoots if you want bushier plants.

7. Flowering & Harvesting
