The soil provided by ST is not that great for gardening.
Quite clayish to be honest.
Hence roots cannot penetrate through the clayey soil which almost becomes as hard as a brick when dry.
So best to prepare a bed for planting the seeds...
You dun need to dig deep.... Prepare a bed by mixing Garden soil + Compost + the soil on ur land... Mix it thoroughly well until the soil is not clayey anymore. Which means u use a greater percentage of Garden soil + Compost.
Then you follow the instructions on the reverse of the packaging that contains the seeds...
They would usually specify the distance between seeds...
Now since u r staying there..... It is easier for you... You can just plant it anywhere... Water regularly (but dun flood it) and voila the seeds will germinate.
Sun wont affect since u r staying there and u can water it the moment the patch dries up.

Professor, how did you plant the seed? Is it bare on the ground or let it germinate away from the sun first? Please share. Thanks in advance.
