Growing Jimcama: Soak seeds in water overnight. After soaking, sow at least 2 seeds into each 4 inch pot filled with a potting mixture intended for seedlings. Place them under a grow light, on a warm windowsill or in a greenhouse, approximately 8-10 weeks before the grow season if your growing season is quite short. Thin the seedlings once germination is complete, leaving the strongest seedling in each pot to thrive. Transplant into larger pots regularly as plants outgrow their containers until it is safe to plant them outside. Support the plants if necessary.
