Gardener’s Notes:Start seeds indoors 4-6 weeks before last spring frost or direct sow seeds outdoors when night temperatures stay above 50 degrees Fahrenheit (10 degrees Celsius). Space seeds very thinly, press into soil and do not cover. When seedlings are large enough to handle, transplant clusters of 3-4 seedlings 8 inches apart. When plants are well-established, harvest sprigs of leaves as needed. Air dry for year-round use.
