What you need to know to Plant & Grow
Petunias require warmth and surface light to germinate successfully before being moved into sunny garden locations in late spring.
-
Indoor Sowing (Recommended): Start pelleted seeds indoors in a sterile soil-less mix 6 to 8 weeks before planting out in late spring. Surface sow seeds directly on top of the medium—do not cover, as light is necessary for germination.
-
Pellet Dissolution & Germination: Gently mist sown seeds with water until the protective coating dissolves completely—dissolving the pellet is essential for germination to occur. Apply bottom heat to maintain a soil temperature of 25°C throughout the 14-day germination period (cooler soil will prolong germination time).
-
Growing On & Transplanting: Once germinated, move seedlings under lights at a cooler temperature of 15°C. Harden off young plants before transplanting outside in late May once frost risks have passed, spacing plants 20 cm apart in full sun.
-
Care & Maintenance: Water regularly and feed periodically with a balanced flower fertilizer to maintain continuous bloom production all season long.
