Sowing instructions
SPRING Sow the seeds on the surface of Well Drained Seed Sowing Mix and pouwder with 2mm Smoked Vermiculite (0,012g/cm²) between 68-77°F. The container with the seeds is placed in a saucer of water until germination occurs. As a result, the moisture reaches the seeds by capillary action and ensures that the seeds do not dry out.
