Store in a cool and dry location such as the refrigerator or basement to best preserve germination rates. Planting Instructions: Soil Preparation: Remove weeds, large rocks, and litter from the planting area. Till the soil 8-10 inches deep and rake several times to break up large clods. It is best to do this when the soil is dry enough to not stick to garden tools. Loosening the soil will help the plant establish strong roots. Planting: Soak Cumin seeds for 8 hours to aid in germination. Broadcast seeds or sow in rows. For row-planting, use a fishing line or hoe handle to create a 1/4 inch deep furrow down the center of the ridge. Plant 1-2 seeds in the furrows spaced 6-8 inches apart within the rows. Cover lightly with loose soil then sprinkle with water. Planting Depth: 1/4 inch Within-Row Spacing: 6 - 8 inches Between-Row Spacing: 12 inches Care During the Season: Watering: Water plants moderately. If the soil moisture is low, water but avoid waterlogging soil. Try to avoid wetting foliage to prevent diseases. Weeding: Keep plants free of weeds, which rob weak root systems of nutrients and moisture. Insecticides: Insecticides may be used to protect plants. Bt-based insecticides and sulfur are organic options that can be used for prevention. Sevin is a synthetic option. Sulfur also has fungicidal properties and helps in controlling many diseases. Before using a pesticide, please read the label and always follow cautions, warnings and directions. Diseases: Disease can happen in cloudy, damp weather. Check plants daily and treat with an approved fungicide if diseases do appear. Neem oil, sulfur, and other fungicides are available for use. Please always follow label directions. Harvesting: Cumin is ready to harvest when plants turn yellowish-brown. Harvest by cutting or uprooting whole plants. Dry harvested cumin plants before threshing to separate Cumin seeds from the plants. Clean seeds by winnowing.
