1. Sow Indoors: Start seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before the last frost. Lightly press seeds into the surface of moist seed-starting mix, as they need light to germinate.
2. Germination: Keep the soil moist and at 65–75°F. Germination usually takes 14–21 days.
3. Light: Provide full sun for optimal growth and flavor.
4. Watering: Water moderately, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Sage prefers well-drained soil and does not tolerate waterlogging.
5. Transplanting: After the last frost, transplant seedlings outdoors, spacing them 12–18 inches apart.
Sage (Salvia officinalis) is perfect for adding to herb gardens, raised beds, or containers. It’s easy to grow, drought-tolerant once established, and provides flavorful, fragrant leaves for culinary or medicinal uses.
