1. Sowing Time: Best in spring or autumn, avoiding extreme temperatures.
2. Soak the Seeds (Method 1): Pour recently boiled water over the seeds and allow to soak for 24–48 hours. Once the seed swells to nearly double its size, it is ready to sow.
   Or (Method 2): Gently scarify (rub) the outer seed coat with sandpaper before sowing.
3. Sowing Depth: Sow into well-draining seed-raising mix, about 3–4mm deep.
4. Maintain Moisture and Warmth: Keep soil moist but not waterlogged. Place the pot in a shallow tray of water to maintain humidity. Ideal temperature: 20–25°C.

6. Seedling Care: Transplant when the roots and leaves are well-developed. Protect young plants from frost until established.
