Planting Instructions

1. Seed Preparation
   No special preparation is needed for petunia seeds, but as they are small, handle them carefully.

2. Sowing

   • Start seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last expected frost date.

   • Use seed trays or pots with a sterile seed-starting mix.

   • Sprinkle the seeds on the surface of the soil and press them down lightly (they require light to germinate).

   • Mist the soil gently to keep it moist, but do not cover the seeds with soil.

3. Germination

   • Place the seed trays or pots in a warm location with a temperature of 70-75°F (21-24°C).

   • Ensure the seeds receive light, either from a sunny window or grow lights.

   • Germination typically occurs within 7-14 days.

   • Keep the soil consistently moist during the germination period.

4. Transplanting

   • When seedlings have at least two sets of true leaves and the danger of frost has passed, they are ready for transplanting.

   • Harden off the seedlings by gradually exposing them to outdoor conditions over a week.

   • Plant the seedlings outdoors in a prepared garden bed, spacing them 10-12 inches apart.

   • Choose a site with full sun to partial shade and well-draining soil.

5. Care and Maintenance

   • Water regularly to keep the soil evenly moist, but avoid overwatering.

   • Mulch around the plants to retain soil moisture and suppress weeds.

   • Deadhead spent blooms regularly to encourage continuous flowering and maintain plant vigor.

   • Monitor for pests like aphids and treat them as necessary.

   • Pinch back the growing tips to encourage bushier growth if desired.

With proper care, these Black Petunias will add a stunning contrast to your garden, making them an eye-catching focal point in any landscape.

Happy Gardening!
