Do not worry if most of them germinate; simply thin seedlings out later. Fill seed trays or 4-inch peat pots with sterile potting mix or select a spot outside in the soil. Push each seed 2 inches deep in the soil and space them 2 to 3 inches apart. Water the soil deeply with the watering can until drained water runs out from the drainage holes in the pots. Water the soil frequently. Place a flat container under each pot or tray to collect drained water. Cover the seed starter tray with an inverted seed tray lid or clear plastic sheet. If using a pot cover it with a clear plastic sheetas well to mimic a greenhouse effect creating humidity and retaining moisture at all times. Place the seed starter tray in an area with a temperature around 41 degrees Fahrenheit for two to three months or until the seeds sprout.
