Sowing

Timing: Start Marjoram seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date. Transplant seedlings outdoors after the danger of frost has passed.
Soil: Plant seeds in well-draining, fertile soil with a pH between 6.5 and 7.5. Ensure good drainage to prevent waterlogging.
Planting: Sow seeds 1/4 inch deep and space them 6-12 inches apart in rows or in containers. Keep soil consistently moist until germination.
Sunlight: Marjoram plants require full sun exposure, at least 6-8 hours of sunlight daily, for optimal growth and flavor development.
Watering: Provide regular watering to Marjoram plants, keeping the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged.
Temperature: Marjoram thrives in warm temperatures between 70°F and 85°F (21°C to 29°C) during the day and slightly cooler temperatures at night.
Harvesting: Harvest Marjoram leaves as needed once the plant is established. Trim stems with sharp scissors or pruning shears, leaving a few inches of growth to encourage regrowth.
