Sowing period: Sowing can be done in spring (from March to May) or at the beginning of autumn (September-October) in temperate climates, when soil temperatures are optimal.
Optimal conditions for germination: Requires a constant soil temperature between 18°C and 25°C. It is essential to keep the soil constantly moist throughout the germination process and in the early stages of growth.
