Planting Instructions:
Seed Preparation:
Soak seeds in warm water for 24 hours to soften the seed coat and improve germination rates.
Stratify seeds by placing them in a moist paper towel, sealing them in a plastic bag, and refrigerating for 4-6 weeks to mimic winter conditions.
Sowing:
After stratification, sow seeds 1/4 inch deep in seed-starting trays or pots filled with a well-draining seed-starting mix.
Maintain a temperature of 65-70°F (18-21°C) during the germination period.
Germination:
Germination can take 2-3 weeks but may take longer, so patience is key.
Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.
Provide sufficient light, either by placing the trays in a sunny window or using grow lights for 12-16 hours per day.
Transplanting:
Once seedlings have developed a few sets of true leaves and are large enough to handle, transplant them into individual pots or directly into the garden.
Space plants 12-18 inches apart to allow for mature growth.
Choose a location with well-drained soil and adequate sunlight.
Care and Maintenance:
Water regularly, ensuring the soil remains moist but not soggy, especially during dry periods.
Mulch around the base of the plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
Support tall flower stalks with stakes if necessary to prevent them from toppling over.
