Cultural Tips:
Grams per 1000 Seeds: 0,263
Seeds per Gram: 3800
Seeding Recommendation: 0,5 g / 1000 plants
Sowing Rate: 2 seeds per cell
Plug tray recommended size(s): 72 or open flats
Germination: These seeds germinate rapidly depending on species and origin. If germination does not occur after 3-4 weeks a cooling period of 2-4 weeks is recommended.
Scheduling:
Best Sowing Dates: November - March
Sowing to Germination: 6 - 8 weeks
Germination to Transplant: 4 - 6 weeks
Transplanting to Salable Plant: 6 - 8 weeks
Cutting-Back at Transplanting: Not necessary
Growing On:
Container Size(s): 1 plug per 8/9 cm; 1-2 plugs per 11/12 cm
Vernalization: A prudent recommendation would be to provide 6-12 weeks at an average daily temperature of 5°C. Exposure to cold may not be necessary for flowering but might improve quality.
Forcing: An obvious place to experiment - following vernalization - would be raising daytime temperatures to 15° - 17°C. Provide 16 hours of continuous lighting. During the short days of winter, provide a night interruption lighting of 4 hours between 10:00 p.m. and 2:00 a.m.
Fertilization: Medium (150-200 ppm).
