Start Catnip seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before your last frost date, or direct-seed outdoors once the risk of frost has passed. For improved germination, cold stratify seeds by placing them in a moist paper towel inside a plastic bag or container, then refrigerate for 1-2 weeks prior to planting.

Press seeds lightly into the soil and cover sparingly. Keep the soil consistently moist until germination, which typically occurs in 10-20 days, though cooler temperatures may delay germination.

After the last frost, transplant seedlings into a sunny or part-sun location, spacing plants 12-18 inches (30-45 cm) apart.
