Press seeds lightly into the soil surface, as they require light to germinate. Keep the growing medium consistently moist but not waterlogged. Once seedlings have several sets of true leaves, harden them off and transplant outdoors after the danger of frost has passed. Space plants 18-24 inches apart to allow good air circulation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBee Balm thrives in moist, well-drained soil and benefits from regular watering during dry spells. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continued blooming. In late fall, cut back stems to ground level. Divide clumps every 2-3 years to maintain vigor and prevent overcrowding. Mulch around plants to conserve moisture and suppress weeds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e100 Berry Bee Balm seeds.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"8 Store Seeds Sejahtera","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49453652869217,"sku":"seed - bee balm-490","price":13.18,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0591\/0796\/7073\/files\/download_fa934d2e-27ec-4101-bb8e-00b4f7ed1cde.jpg?v=1792573938","url":"https:\/\/8storeseedsejahtera.store\/products\/100-berry-bee-balm-seeds-hummingbird-flower-for-planting","provider":"8 Store Seeds Sejahtera","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
