I usually plant two crops, one in April, one in late June.

I soak the soil, plant the seeds very shallow, and cover the rows with pine boards. The soil stays moist, germination is faster, and heavy rains won't wash away the seeds. After about 5-7 days I start to look under the boards for seedlings.
