Growing rocket herb (arugula) from seeds using the materials you have can be straightforward and rewarding. Here’s a step-by-step guide:

1. Sowing the Seeds:
- Fill the pot with the potting mix, leaving about 1 inch from the top.
- Sprinkle rocket herb seeds evenly over the surface of the soil. Lightly press them into the soil with your fingers or the back of the scraper tool.

2. Watering:
- Water gently after sowing to settle the seeds into the soil. Ensure the soil is moist but not waterlogged.
- Water regularly to keep the soil consistently moist, especially during germination and early growth stages.

3. Fertilizing:
- Once the seedlings have established (around 2 weeks after germination), dilute the concentrated root fertilizer according to the package instructions.
- Apply the fertilizer around the base of the plants, being careful not to over-fertilize, which can lead to burning the roots.

4. Nutrifier Spray (Optional):
- If you choose to use a plant nutrifier spray, follow the instructions on the spray bottle. This can provide additional nutrients and help promote healthy growth.

5. Maintenance:
- Thin out seedlings if they are too crowded, leaving the strongest ones spaced about 4-6 inches apart.
- Keep an eye out for pests. If pests appear, you can apply bug deterrence powder according to the instructions.

6. Harvesting:
- Rocket herb grows quickly and can be harvested when the leaves are young and tender, typically around 3-4 weeks after planting.
- Harvest by cutting leaves from the outside of the plant, allowing the center leaves to continue growing.

7. Additional Tips:
- Sunlight:  Place the pot in a location that receives at least 4-6 hours of sunlight daily.
- Temperature:  Rocket herb prefers cooler temperatures, ideally between 50-75°F (10-24°C).
- Watering:  Avoid overwatering, as rocket herb prefers slightly dry conditions between waterings.

By following these steps and using the materials you have, you can successfully grow rocket herb from seeds in a pot. Enjoy harvesting fresh, peppery leaves for your salads and dishes!
