Planting Instructions:
Seed Preparation:
No special preparation is needed for begonia seeds, but for better handling, you can mix the tiny seeds with sand to ensure even sowing.
Sowing:
Start seeds indoors 8-12 weeks before the last expected frost.
Fill a seed tray or small pots with a well-draining seed starting mix.
Scatter the seeds evenly on the surface of the soil, as begonia seeds need light to germinate. Do not cover them with soil.
Lightly mist the seeds with water and cover the tray or pots with plastic wrap or a clear lid to maintain humidity.
Germination:
Place the seed tray or pots in a warm, bright location with indirect sunlight.
Maintain a consistent soil temperature of 70-75°F (21-24°C) for optimal germination, which usually occurs in 14-21 days.
Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged.
Transplanting:
Once seedlings have developed at least two sets of true leaves and the danger of frost has passed, harden them off by gradually exposing them to outdoor conditions over 7-10 days.
Transplant the seedlings into the garden or containers, spacing them 6-8 inches apart.
Care and Maintenance:
Water the begonias regularly to keep the soil evenly moist but avoid overwatering.
Pinch back the tips of young plants to promote bushier growth.
Remove spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming and maintain plant health.
Protect the plants from extreme heat and direct midday sun, especially in hotter climates.
Happy Gardening!
