Planting Instructions:
Seed Preparation:
Daffodil seeds benefit from a period of cold stratification to break dormancy. Place the seeds in a damp paper towel inside a plastic bag and refrigerate for 6 to 8 weeks.
Sowing:
After stratification, sow the seeds in seed trays or pots filled with a well-draining seed starting mix. Press the seeds lightly into the soil and cover them with a thin layer of soil, about 1/4 inch deep. Space the seeds about 1 to 2 inches apart.
Germination:
Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Place the seed trays or pots in a warm, bright location with indirect sunlight. Maintain a temperature of around 60-65°F (15-18°C) during the germination period. Germination can take several weeks to a few months, so be patient and maintain consistent soil conditions.
Transplanting:
Once the seedlings have grown a few inches tall and have a couple of sets of true leaves, they are ready for transplanting. Gradually acclimate the seedlings to outdoor conditions by placing them outside for a few hours each day, increasing the time gradually over a week. Transplant the seedlings into their permanent location, spacing them about 6 inches apart in the garden or in containers.
Care and Maintenance:
Water the plants regularly, especially during dry periods, but avoid overwatering as daffodils prefer well-drained soil. Mulch around the base of the plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage new blooms and prevent seed formation, which can divert energy from the bulb. Allow the foliage to die back naturally after blooming to enable the bulb to store energy for the next growing season. Monitor for pests such as slugs and snails, and treat accordingly. Daffodils are generally resistant to most pests and diseases if grown in the right conditions.
Where flowers bloom, so does hope.
Happy gardening!
