Adding Fertilizer: Sprinkle an additional layer of fertilizer around the outer edge of the pot, avoiding the seed to prevent root burn.
Watering: Give the seed a generous drink, ensuring the soil is moist but not waterlogged. It’s crucial to let it dry out for a couple of days between waterings.
Be Patient: Germinating can take anywhere from two weeks to two months. Monitor the soil; if it's dry, water again.
