Planting Instructions:

Seed Preparation:

Amaranthus seeds do not require any special preparation before planting.

Sowing:

Sow seeds directly into well-drained, fertile soil after the last frost date in your area.

Scatter the seeds thinly over the soil surface and lightly cover them with a thin layer of soil or compost.

Germination:

Keep the soil consistently moist until germination, which usually occurs within 7-14 days.

Maintain a soil temperature of around 65-75°F (18-24°C) for optimal germination.

Transplanting:

Once seedlings have developed several sets of true leaves and are sturdy enough to handle, thin them to a spacing of 12-18 inches apart.

If starting indoors, sow seeds 4-6 weeks before the last frost date and transplant seedlings outdoors after all danger of frost has passed.

Care and Maintenance:

Water plants regularly, especially during dry periods, to keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged.

Pinch back the growing tips of young plants to encourage bushiness and more flowers.

Deadhead spent blooms regularly to prolong flowering and encourage new blooms.

Happy Gardening!
