Balsam seeds have a hard seed coat. To get seeds to germinate faster, soak seeds in warm water for 4-6 hours. This softens the seed coat and facilitates sprouting.

After the date of the last frost, plant the seeds directly into the ground. If you live in most regions of India, early spring or following the monsoon period is best. Dust the seeds very lightly over the surface of the ground and cover the seeds with a thin amount of soil. Water well lightly.

Water the seeds constantly to keep the soil moist but not soggy. Excessive water will drown the roots, so treat them gently. Water in the early morning or at night later on for less evaporation. Water the seedlings when they appear, but only if the topsoil has dried.

Although the Balsam plants are raised up-right, give support via stick. Stake them with little stakes or trellises if needed so that they do not bend or break.
