Useful Information

Sowing & Growing

Ashwagandha can be direct sown outdoors following the last frost, approximately 3/8″ below the surface of the soil and kept evenly moist. Otherwise, you can sow indoors in early spring to give your starts additional time to develop before going outside.

Sow seeds slightly closer to the surface (~1/4″) if using flats or other small containers indoors. To maintain keep soil moist as seeds begin to germinate. Transplant into larger containers and gradually expose to outdoor conditions. Transplant in late spring to a sunny location once plants are stable have reached a height of around 4″ or more.
