Description: Growing Instructions Before Planting: Catnip can be planted from seed or transplanted into the herb bed, but if planting from the seed there are certain steps to take to ensure germination. Catnip seeds are tough and need to be stratified, which means they need to be slightly damaged before they will sprout. To stratify a catnip seed, freeze the seed overnight and then leave the seeds to soak in water for 24 hours. Planting: After you have stratified the seeds, you can plant them indoors or outdoors. If planting outdoors, plant in rows after the last chance of frost. Catnip seeds can be planted in the spring or in the fall. Watering: Water every other week unless in a drought, water once a week. Fertilizer: Catnip grows very quickly and does not require fertilizer. Fertilizing catnip can actually damage the potency of its smell and flavor. Days to Maturity: Catnip leaves can be plucked at any point during their growing season and flowers should be picked just after they open. Harvesting: Pinch off individual leaves and flower blooms or cut entire stems depending on usage. Collect seeds from the flowers to replant if desired, the catnip will reseed itself in the same spot and return each year. Thank you , if anything please let me know.
