Camelina grows well in a sunny location with well-drained soil. Prepare the planting area by loosening the soil and clearing away competing weeds before sowing. Good drainage is important for maintaining suitable growing conditions.

Keep the soil consistently moist during germination and early establishment. After the seedlings become established, water according to local growing conditions while avoiding prolonged waterlogging.

Sow the seeds in prepared garden soil or a suitable seed-starting medium. Cover them lightly with soil and maintain consistent moisture during germination. Once seedlings emerge and become established, provide sufficient sunlight and space for healthy development.

For container growing, choose a container with drainage holes and fill it with a quality, well-draining growing medium. Place the container in a sunny location and monitor soil moisture regularly.
