Planting Instructions:

Seed Preparation: No special preparation required for seeds. However, soaking them in water for a few hours before planting can help soften the seed coat and promote quicker germination.

Sowing:

Sow seeds thinly on the surface of a moist, well-draining seed starting mix in trays or pots. Press the seeds gently into the soil, but do not cover them as they require light for germination.

Germination:

Begonia seeds typically germinate within 14-21 days when kept in a warm (70-75 °F), humid environment. Maintain consistent moisture levels by misting the soil surface regularly.

Transplanting:

Once seedlings have developed several true leaves and are large enough to handle, transplant them into individual pots or into the garden bed, spacing them 6-12 inches apart.

Care and Maintenance:

Provide consistent moisture, but avoid overwatering as begonias are susceptible to root rot. Protect from strong winds and extreme heat. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming. In colder climates, bring potted begonias indoors before the first frost or treat them as annuals.

Happy gardening!
