Syrian rue prefers dry sandy soil with an alkaline PH.  A mixture of half sand and half soil is ideal.  Adding lime can also help make the PH more alkaline.  A cactus potting soil will also work well.  Sow the seeds just under the surface of the soil and mist lightly.  Syrian rue seedlings are prone to damping off, so make sure to limit your watering.  Some growers will choose to cover the soil with clear plastic until germination begins.  Others will leave it exposed to the open air.  Syrian rue prefers warm temperatures for germination, so bottom heat is beneficial.  Fluorescent light works well for starting seeds. Although a warm sunny window can also suffice.   Outdoors, keep your plants out of direct sun for the first year.  Seeds sown outdoors are best off being started in mid-summer.  Sow just below the surface of a loose, sandy soil.  The plants are sensitive to transplanting, but it can be managed if you do not disturb the roots.
