Cuphea Sweet Talk Lavender Materials Needed

• Cuphea seeds
• Seed starting trays or small pots
• Seed starting mix (sterile and well-draining)
• Spray bottle or watering can with a fine nozzle
• Plastic wrap or humidity dome
• Grow lights or a sunny windowsill

Steps for Growing Cuphea from Seed

1. Prepare the Seed Starting Mix:
   • Fill your seed starting trays or small pots with a sterile seed starting mix.
   • Moisten the mix with water until it is damp but not soaking wet.
2. Sow the Seeds:
   • Scatter the Cuphea seeds evenly on the surface of the seed starting mix.
   • Lightly press the seeds into the soil, but do not cover them as they need light to germinate.
3. Provide Light and Humidity:
   • Place the tray or pots in a location where they will receive bright, indirect light. If using grow lights, position them a few inches above the seeds.
   • Cover the tray or pots with plastic wrap or a humidity dome to maintain moisture and humidity.
4. Maintain Moisture:
   • Keep the seed starting mix consistently moist by misting it with water. Avoid overwatering, as this can lead to fungal issues.
   • Remove the plastic wrap or humidity dome once the seeds start to germinate.
