Default How to grow chia?

I know these seeds will grow in Mexico and south
America but will they grow
in north America?

Does anyone know the right growing conditions?

TIA

They grow wild in some areas of North America too.

Lots of sand and heat - think Anza Borrego state park, in southern
California.

Thanks Henriette.

I've discovered that it will grow in northern
California too. It
doesn't need a lot of heat but I bet the
conditions of light and water
are also big factors.
