in the ground, in bucket

Sow in pots at a temperature between 18 and 20°C, 2 to 3 weeks before planting. Transplant with the root ball into the ground, after the last frosts, at a minimum distance of 2 m in all directions. Sowing directly into the ground is possible in mild climates, in May. In both cases, prepare holes filled with compost or organic matter two weeks in advance to accommodate your seedlings or seeds.
