Growing Instructions:

  1. Moringa plants should be grown in containers unless you are in USDA zones 9-10, where they can be planted outdoors.
  2. For container-grown plants, move them indoors or to a protected area during winter to avoid cold temperatures.
  3. Soak Moringa seeds overnight, then place them in a moist bag for sprouting, which typically takes 3-14 days at temperatures between 70-90°F.
  4. Once sprouted, plant seeds 1" deep in sandy loam soil, keeping the soil moist but not saturated.
  5. If starting indoors, transplant seedlings once roots are established and temperatures are consistently above 75°F.
  6. Gradually acclimate seedlings to outdoor conditions before planting them in the garden.
