Planting Instructions:

Seed Preparation:

• No special pre-treatment is required. However, a cold stratification period (placing seeds in the fridge for 2-4 weeks) can improve germination rates.

Sowing:

• Sow seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost date.
• Fill seed trays or pots with a seed-starting mix.
• Scatter seeds evenly on the surface and lightly press them into the soil. Do not cover with soil, as Meconopsis seeds need light to germinate.
• Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged. Maintain a temperature of 55-65°F (13-18°C) for optimal conditions.

Germination:

• Seeds typically germinate within 2-4 weeks under optimal conditions.
• Provide indirect light or a light source for 12-16 hours a day to mimic natural conditions.

Transplanting:

• Transplant seedlings outdoors after the last frost date when they have at least 2-3 sets of true leaves and the soil temperature is consistently above 50°F (10°C).
• Harden off seedlings gradually over a week by exposing them to outdoor conditions.
• Space plants 8-12 inches apart to allow for mature growth.

Care and Maintenance:

• Water regularly to keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy.
• Mulch around plants to help retain moisture and suppress weeds.
• Deadhead spent blooms to encourage continued flowering and maintain plant health.

Happy Gardening!
