Sowing/Growing information | |
Sowing | Sow onto a moist seed-sowing compost in a 576 to 150 cell plug tray or larger cell if preferred. Cover lightly with vermiculite to the depth of the seed and propagate at 18-20C (65-68F). Germination should take place after approximately 10-14 days depending on the variety. |
Growing | Grow on at 15C (60F) reducing to 10C (50F) as the seedlings develop and fill the tray. When the plug plants are established - generally 6-8 weeks from sowing - pot on into 1 litre pots for sales in April-early May or pot 3 plugs into a 2 or 3 litre pot for later sales in flower in late June. |
