Coreopsi 2. Sowing Coreopsis Seeds:

• Fill seed trays or small containers with the seed starting mix or potting soil.
• Moisten the soil evenly before planting the seeds.
• Sprinkle the Coreopsis seeds on the surface of the soil. Lightly press them down, but do not cover them with soil, as they require light to germinate.

3. Watering:

• Water the soil gently using a fine spray nozzle or a spray bottle. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.

4. Germination:

• Place the seed trays in a warm location with indirect sunlight or use grow lights. Coreopsis seeds typically germinate in 10 to 15 days.
• Once the seeds germinate, remove the plastic covering to promote air circulation.

5. Light and Temperature:

• Provide bright, indirect light or grow lights for the seedlings. Maintain a temperature between 60°F to 70°F (15°C to 21°C) for optimal growth.

6. Transplanting:

• When the Coreopsis seedlings have developed a couple of true leaves, transplant them into individual pots or larger containers.
• Handle the seedlings carefully to avoid damaging the roots.

7. Outdoor Planting:

• Once the seedlings are well-established and the danger of frost has passed, transplant them into the garden. Choose a sunny location with well-draining soil.

8. Care and Maintenance:

• Water the Coreopsis regularly, especially during dry periods. Once established, they are somewhat drought-tolerant.
• Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming and a tidy appearance.
• Fertilize with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season.
