Seed treatment:
-Soak in warm water: soak the seeds in warm water at 40℃ for 12-24 hours to soften the seed coat
and improve the germination rate.
-Cut the seed coat (optional): lightly grind the seed coat with sandpaper or cut the seed coat with
a knife, but avoid damaging the germ.
Sowing time:
-Best time * *: Spring (March-May), when the temperature is stable at 15-25℃. The south can be earlier,
and the north needs to avoid frost.
Soil and containers:
1. Soil requirements
-Loose, breathable and well-drained nutrient soil can be humus soil+garden soil+river sand (ratio 2:1:1)
or general nursery substrate.
-Water it thoroughly before sowing, and keep it moist without water accumulation.
2. Container selection
Seedling pots, plug pots or shallow pots should have drainage holes at the bottom.
Sowing method:
Step 1: on demand
-Shallow bury the seeds in the soil with a covering thickness of about 0.5-1 cm (about 1-2 times the diameter
of the seeds) and a spacing of 3-5 cm.
Step 2 Moisturize and cover
-Spray water to keep the soil moist, cover it with plastic wrap or transparent cover to keep it moist, and
ventilate it for 1-2 hours every day to prevent mildew.
3. Environmental conditions
-Temperature: 18-25℃; Astigmatism environment, avoid exposure.
Germination period management:
-Germination time: about 10-20 days, depending on temperature and humidity.
-After emergence:
-Gradually increase the light to avoid unnecessary growth.
-When there are 2-3 leaves, thin liquid fertilizer (such as 1:1000 general fertilizer) can be applied.
-Seedling height is 5-8 cm, and strong plants are reserved.
Transplanting and planting:
1. Transplanting opportunity
-Transplant the seedlings when they are 10-15cm long and have 4-5 true leaves.
2. Ground planting/pot planting
-Ground planting: choose a place with sufficient sunlight and shelter from the wind, with a spacing of 1-1.5m..
-Potting: use flowerpots with a diameter of more than 20 cm, and add organic base fertilizer to the pot soil.
3. Slow seedling maintenance
-After transplanting, water it, shade it for 3-5 days, and gradually restore light.
Daily maintenance:
1. Lighting: I like full sunshine and at least 6 hours of lighting every day.
2. Watering: keep the soil moist during the growing period, and increase watering in summer to avoid
water accumulation.
3. Fertilization:
-Apply compound fertilizer once a month during the growth period, and increase the application of phosphorus
and potassium fertilizer before the flowering period (such as Huaduoduo No.2).
Step 4 trim:
-Prune the weak and dense branches in spring, and cut the residual flowers after flowering to promote new branches.
5. Overwintering protection:
-Potted plants should be moved indoors in the north (cold-resistant zone 7-10) and kept above 5℃.
Frequently asked questions:
-Low germination rate: the seeds are old or improperly treated, so it is recommended to use fresh seeds and soak
them in advance.
-Too long: insufficient light, so it is necessary to increase the scattered light.
-Pests and diseases: pay attention to aphids and red spiders, which can be controlled with soapy water or imidacloprid.
Flowering time:
Seeding seedlings usually take 1-2 years to bloom, and flowers can be seen in summer and autumn the following year
after sowing in spring. Flowers bloom in the morning and fade at dusk, and their colors change with the light.
