Petunia Stars Seeds When to Plant
- Prepare the Seed Tray – A shallow seed tray or small pots with a light, loose potting medium work best. The best variety to use is a seed-starting mix.
- Sow the Seeds – The seeds of the Petunia are too small. Plant them on the soil’s surface but not buried since they require light in order to germinate.
- Water Gently – Sprayed the ground with a spray bottle so that the seeds will not be dislodged.
- Cover the Tray – Cover the tray with plastic wrap or clear cover in order to seal in the moisture.
- Petunia Stars Seeds Give Warmth and Light – Place the tray in a warm spot (70-75°F or 21-24°C) and give it bright, indirect light or a grow light.
Taking Care of the Seedlings
- The seeds will germinate within 7-14 days. After they have, take off the cover.
- Water lightly when necessary. Keep the soil moist but not soggy.
- Petunia Stars Seeds Move the seedlings to a light location, ideally in front of a sunny window.
- When they have two sets of leaves, transplant them into larger pots.
- Putting Petunias Outside
- Wait for warm weather (after the last frost) and put petunias outside.
- Plant them 12 inches apart.
