Planting Instructions:

Seed Preparation:

No special preparation is needed for petunia seeds, but they are very small, so handle them carefully.

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, as they require light to germinate.
Mist the soil gently to keep it moist, but do not cover the seeds with soil.

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.

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.

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 to encourage continuous flowering and maintain plant vigor.
Monitor for pests such as aphids and treat them as necessary.
Pinch back the growing tips to encourage bushier growth if desired.

Gardening is the art that uses flowers and plants as plants, and the soil and sky as canvas.

Happy gardening!
