Thanks, Steve. One other question I forgot, full sun or sun/shade?

In the garden? Full sun for sure out there.... unless you are where it
is extremely hot and sunny.
If you start the seed indoors, they should get several days outside
before you plant them in the garden. The first few of those days should
be partly shaded. If it turns hot right after you plant them out, a
sheet of newspaper will keep them from wilting. That's the only time
shade will be a good thing.
Once they dig in some roots, full sun is OK. If you plant the seed
directly in the garden, no shade should be needed.
