First, the seeds have to be taken out of the pods. Then, water the seeds in warm water for 12 hours and sow them in a warm greenhouse or under plastic in spring. They germinate after 2 weeks and should be separated when they are 4cm tall.

For outdoor use, the plantlets should only be placed outside after the last frost and protected against the wind and cold with a cloth. The plant loves to grow in rich, well-drained soil in a very warm, dry, and sunny location.

If all of those conditions are fulfilled, direct sowing of the seeds in the bed is possible from June. However, pre-culture is better in any case - strong peanut plantlets can also ripe in Middle-European gardens.
