Instructions:
We recommend using the following to sow the seeds:
- 12 Cavity GreenhouseorPlanter with Humidity Dome
- Soil Pods
- Liquid Fertilizer
Keep the seeds in a cool, dark place if not planting right away.
When getting ready to plant, pre-soak in hot water for 24-48hrs. Place the seeds in moist medium like sphagnum moss or perlite in a ziploc bag and place the seeds in the medium. Close the baggie and leave in a warm spot (>70F). Alternately, you can plant the seeds in the medium in a nursery pot and place a ziploc bag over the planter.
Once the seeds germinate, you can plant the seeds in a planter. Monitor their conditions and make sure the soil remains moist.
If you have any issues at all with getting your seeds to sprout, please don’t hesitate to reach out! I’d be happy to help guide you through creating the right conditions for the seeds.
