Spacing them 1m apart or further will encourage more buds to form. Sow 2 seeds in the same spot and thin out the weakest one. Or sow into a biodegradable pot that can be planted directly into the garden without disturbing the roots.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCaring for Roselle\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRegular watering of Roselle will help to encourage steady growth during early development stages.
