Growing Non-GMO Cumin Culinary Herb Garden Seeds

Non-GMO cumin seeds may be grown directly in the garden but, for best starts, begin heirloom cumin seeds indoors 6-8 weeks prior to final frost date. Plant 3-4 cumin seeds ¼" deep per cell or 4-8" apart in the herb garden in fertile, loamy, well-drained soil in full sun. Garden cumin seeds germinate in 7-14 days, thinning back to 1 plant per pot or every 8" in the herb garden. Transplant to garden when cumin seedlings have established true leaves. Allow soil to dry before watering, open-pollinated cumin is susceptible to root rot and mildew. Non-GMO cumin herb seeds require a longer growing season before harvest and performs well in pots and container gardening.

Cumin seeds have been cultivated as a culinary herb and spice for thousands of years. First domesticated by ancient Egyptians and Minoans of the Mediterranean, ground cumin seed even became a staple in Greek households, stored and treated as a casual seasoning similar to salt and pepper today, a traditional still continued in Morocco. Currently, China and India produce nearly 75% of the entire world's supply of cumin, while consuming a vast majority of that themselves.
