Begin by buying high-quality Petunia ‘Espresso Frappe’ seeds from a trusted supplier. Because petunia seeds are so tiny, handle them gently and sow in a good-draining seed-starting mix. Water a tray of the mix lightly over the surface and broadcast seeds onto the tray, pressing the seeds into the mix without planting them. Petunia seeds need light to germinate, so do not cover the seeds.

Then, provide the seeds with plenty of heat and moisture. Indulge in 70–75°F (21–24°C) steady germination temperature for 24 hours. Position the seed tray under a clear plastic dome or plastic wrap to conserve moisture. Set the tray in sunlight, a sunny window, or under grow lights to foster healthy seedling growth.

Then wait for 7–14 days when the seeds will germinate. After the seedlings have emerged, take off the plastic cover to provide air circulation. Continue providing bright, indirect light for a minimum of 12–14 hours a day. In case of poor light, use fluorescent or LED plant lights for proper growth.

After the seedlings have formed their first true leaves, it is time to shift them into individual pots. Take each seedling carefully between a small spoon or dibber without damaging the roots that are sensitive. Shift them into slightly larger pots with good potting soil that drains. Water the seedlings sparingly and continue to give them a lot of light in an effort to give them good growth. Candytuft can be grown together with petunia
