Planting Instructions

Seed Preparation:

Clarkia seeds typically do not require any special preparation. Ensure they are fresh and not expired.

Sowing:

Outdoor Sowing:

Sow seeds directly outdoors after the last frost date in spring.

Prepare the soil by loosening it to a depth of 1-2 inches and removing weeds.

Scatter seeds evenly over the prepared soil surface.

Lightly press the seeds into the soil or cover them with a thin layer of soil (about 1/8 inch deep).

Water gently to settle the soil.

Indoor Sowing (Optional for Early Starts):

Start seeds indoors 4-6 weeks before the last expected frost.

Use seed trays or pots filled with seed starting mix.

Moisten the mix before sowing seeds.

Sow seeds thinly and cover lightly with a fine layer of soil.

Place trays or pots in a bright location or under grow lights.

Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged.

Germination:

Germination typically occurs within 10-20 days, depending on soil temperature and moisture levels.

Transplanting:

When seedlings have at least two sets of true leaves and outdoor temperatures are consistently above freezing, transplant them into their final growing positions.

Space seedlings about 6-12 inches apart, depending on the desired density of plants.

Care and Maintenance:

Watering:

Keep the soil evenly moist, especially during dry periods.

Water at the base of plants to avoid wetting the foliage, which can promote disease.

Mulching:

Apply a layer of organic mulch around plants to help retain soil moisture and suppress weeds.

Support:

If growing tall varieties or in windy areas, provide support with stakes or cages to prevent plants from bending or breaking.
