Planting & Sowing Instructions:
-
Select the Right Location: Choose a sunny spot with well-drained soil. Nasturtiums thrive in full sunlight but can tolerate partial shade.
-
Prepare the Soil: Loosen the soil to a depth of 2-3 inches and mix in compost if desired for enhanced growth. Nasturtiums are quite adaptable to poorer soils, but they do best in well-drained environments.
-
Sow the Seeds: Plant the seeds directly in the garden or in containers after the last frost. Space the seeds 6-12 inches apart. Plant the seeds about 1/2 inch (1.3 cm) deep into the soil.
-
Watering: Water lightly after planting, keeping the soil consistently moist until the seeds germinate. Once established, water moderately but allow the soil to dry between waterings.
-
Care During Growth: Thin out weaker seedlings to ensure strong, healthy plants. Nasturtiums are quite low maintenance and will thrive with minimal care once established.
-
Harvesting: Flowers and leaves can be harvested for culinary uses, such as in salads or as garnishes, once the plants are well-established.
