Hi there Isiaka, I am in a cool growing are but this website gives guides to several different growing climates so I just changed the climate to Tropical and there it suggest to sow seeds in April and transplant seedlings in May June and July... you should have a look at the tropical location growing chart it may give you some info that suits your location. Happy gardening Jen
