* Do you want to plant asters now and can't wait until spring? Well, remember about winter sowing and grab your shovels! Winter sowing of asters gives even more friendly shoots than spring sowing. Prepare the plot in advance, in September.
Asters prefer neutral or slightly alkaline soils. When preparing the soil, avoid adding fresh manure so that the asters do not get fusarium, and liming of acidic soils is a must.
Sowing is carried out in October-November with dry, tested seeds. Plantings are mulched and covered with dry leaves for the winter.
If you are late with autumn sowing, you can sow asters even in the snow! Winter sowing is carried out in December-January. The layer of snow on the areas dug up in the fall and prepared for sowing in advance should be at least 50-70 cm. Furrows 12-15 cm deep are made in the snow and the seeds are sown. Then the furrows are mulched with soil stored indoors. Asters sown in January are more resistant to pests and diseases and bloom 2-3 weeks earlier! In winter, you can sow other cold-resistant annuals in the snow: cosmos, calendula, clarkia, iberis. Take advantage of winter sowing, and let your plot be painted in all the colors of the rainbow in the spring!
