Planting Instructions:
Seed Preparation:
 No special preparation is needed. However, you may improve germination by soaking seeds in warm water for 24 hours before planting.
Sowing:
Sow seeds directly in the garden in early spring or fall. Prepare the soil by raking it to create a fine, loose seedbed. Scatter seeds thinly on the surface and press them gently into the soil, but do not cover them, as they need light to germinate.
Germination:
Seeds will germinate in 10-20 days, depending on the soil temperature. Keep the soil consistently moist during the germination period.
Transplanting:
Poppies do not transplant well due to their delicate taproots. It's best to sow them directly where they are to grow. If starting indoors, use biodegradable pots to minimize root disturbance when transplanting.
Care and Maintenance:
Water regularly but do not overwater, as poppies prefer well-drained soil. Thin seedlings to about 6-12 inches apart to allow for proper growth and air circulation. Apply a balanced fertilizer once during the growing season if the soil is poor. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming. Poppies are generally pest-free and low maintenance.
Gardening is the art that uses flowers and plants as paint, and the soil and sky as canvas.
