Cleome seeds require sunlight to germinate. Plant Spacing: Plant cleome seeds or thin seedlings 12" to 24" apart. Germination Period: Cleome germinates in 7 to 21 days, most often at the 14-day mark under optimal conditions. Indoor Seed Starting: You can start your seeds indoors, under lights, 4 to 6 weeks prior to the last spring frost, on a heat mat set to 70-75°F. Once your plants have emerged and reached a height of 6" (be sure to keep the lights just above the seedling, raising it as necessary, to prevent leggedness) transplant them outdoors or into large containers.
