Pre-cultivate the seeds by sowing 1 seed per pot. Keep the soil moist and make sure the temperature is between 18-20°C until it starts to sprout. Once it has sprouted, you can keep the plant at room temperature. For best results, water the plant when the soil is dry and provide it with plant food regularly.
