Growing Guide
Step 1: Prepare the Seeds
Use fresh Korean Angelica seeds whenever possible, as they can lose viability during storage. Dried seeds may benefit from a short period of cold stratification. Research on Angelica gigas indicates that approximately two weeks of cold treatment can improve germination.

Step 2: Prepare the Growing Medium
Choose a deep seed tray or small container filled with fertile, moisture-retentive, well-draining seed-starting soil. Lightly moisten the growing medium before sowing.

Step 3: Sow the Seeds
Scatter the seeds over the soil surface and gently press them into the growing medium. Do not cover them deeply because light is required for germination. Keep the soil moist and provide suitable cool conditions.

Step 4: Provide Suitable Light and Moisture
Place the seed containers in a bright location with indirect light. Maintain consistent moisture without waterlogging. Once seedlings develop true leaves, carefully move them into individual deeper containers.
