Planting Instructions
Seed Preparation
Pre-treatment: No pre-treatment is necessary, but soaking seeds in water for 12-24 hours can improve germination rates.
Sowing
When to Sow: Sow seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date or directly outdoors after the danger of frost has passed.
Depth: Sow seeds on the surface of the soil and lightly press them in. Do not cover with soil as they need light to germinate.
Spacing: Space seeds about 6-12 inches apart.
Germination
Temperature: Maintain a temperature of 65-70°F (18-21°C) for optimal germination.
Time to Germinate: Germination typically takes 14-21 days.
Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.
Transplanting
Indoor to Outdoor: When seedlings have two sets of true leaves and the danger of frost has passed, harden them off by gradually exposing them to outdoor conditions over a week.
Planting Out: Transplant seedlings into the garden, spacing them 12 inches apart in well-draining soil.
Care and Maintenance
Watering: Water regularly, especially during dry periods, but do not allow the soil to become waterlogged.
Pruning: Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming.
Pest and Disease Control: Salvia Candidissima is generally resistant to pests and diseases but watch for aphids and mildew. Use organic pesticides or natural remedies if necessary.
