Start indoors six weeks before the last frost, or direct seed a month after the last frost. Soil should be warm before seedlings or seeds are put outdoors. Keep soil moist and fertilize as needed, but avoid overwatering. Control weeds carefully.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e In cooler climates, grow under covers or cloches with heat.

Start seeds indoors 6 weeks prior to the last frost in cooler climates. If transplanting, start seeds in peat or other biodegradable pots to minimize root disturbances during transplantation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHarvesting White Shirogoma Sesame\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe seeds develop inside pods inside the flowers.
