Sowing

Timing: Plant summer thyme seeds indoors in early spring or directly outdoors after the last frost.
Soil: Use well-draining, sandy soil with good aeration.
Planting: Sow seeds on the surface of the soil and lightly cover them with a thin layer of soil or vermiculite.
Sunlight: Thyme thrives in full sun, so ensure it receives at least 6-8 hours of sunlight daily.
Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged, especially during dry periods.
Temperature: Thyme prefers warm temperatures and can tolerate heat well.
Spacing: Space thyme seeds or seedlings about 8-12 inches apart.
Harvesting: You can start harvesting thyme leaves once the plant is established and has grown a few inches tall. Trim the stems as needed, but avoid cutting more than a third of the plant at once to allow for regrowth.
