Sowing | Multi sow into a 286 plug tray with 3 or 4 seeds per station to obtain bushier plants. Alternatively sow into a seed tray and then prick out the seedlings in clumps. Sow on to the surface of moist seed sowing compost. Don't cover the seed and propagate at 20C. When the seedlings have emerged grow on at 18 to 20C. |
Growing | Continue to grow the seedlings on at 15C until they are established and fill the tray. Transfer to a 12 pack, 6 pack or 9cm pot and continue to grow on at 10 to 15C. Early February sowings will result in flowering plants for sale in late April / May. Later sowings made in April can be potted on into 1 litre pots for sales of more established flowering plants in late June. |
