Planting Instructions:

Seed Preparation:

Petunia seeds generally do not require any special preparation before sowing.

Sowing:

Sow the seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date or directly outdoors after all danger of frost has passed.

If sowing indoors, use a well-draining seed-starting mix and lightly press the seeds into the soil surface. Keep the soil consistently moist until germination occurs.

Germination:

Petunia seeds typically germinate within 7-10 days when kept in a warm (70-75°F), well-lit location.

Once seedlings have developed several sets of true leaves, they can be thinned to ensure proper spacing.

Transplanting:

When outdoor temperatures remain consistently above 50°F, and all danger of frost has passed, transplant seedlings into their permanent location in the garden or containers.

Space plants 10-12 inches apart to allow for proper air circulation and growth.

Care and Maintenance:

Provide regular watering to keep the soil evenly moist, especially during hot, dry periods.

Deadhead spent flowers regularly to encourage continuous blooming and maintain plant appearance.

Monitor plants for signs of pests such as aphids or whiteflies and treat as needed with insecticidal soap or neem oil.

Petunias benefit from occasional pruning to remove leggy growth and encourage bushier, more compact plants.

Happy Gardening!
