Catnip

$0.00


Catnip can be started indoors 4–8 weeks before the last frost or directly sown outdoors after frost danger has passed. Seeds should be planted about ¼ inch deep in moist soil and kept around 70°F, with seedlings emerging in 14–21 days. Provide plenty of light and harden seedlings off before transplanting them outside. When planting in the garden, space plants about 18 inches apart in full sun or light shade.

Catnip grows best with regular watering, about 1 inch of water per week, and benefits from mulch to retain moisture and reduce weeds. Pinching young plants encourages bushier growth, and cutting plants back after blooming promotes new growth. Dividing plants every 2–3 years helps keep them healthy and prevents them from spreading too much. 🌿
