How to Sow and Plant

Sow seeds in seed trays or starter pots indoors 4-8 weeks before last frost.

Lightly press seeds onto the soil surface — do not cover deeply (petunia seeds need light to germinate).

Maintain moist (not soggy) soil and warm temperatures (≈ 70–75°F / 21–24°C).

Germination typically occurs in 7–14 days with adequate light and warmth.

How to Grow

Sunlight: Full sun (6–8+ hours daily) for best flowering.

Water: Moderate; keep soil moist but avoid waterlogging.

Soil: Well-drained, fertile soil enriched with organic matter.

Fertilizer: Apply balanced liquid fertilizer every 2–3 weeks in peak season.

Tips

Mix petunia seeds with fine sand for more even sowing.

In containers/baskets, use a quality potting mix with good drainage.

Deadhead spent flowers to prolong blooming.

Protect from heavy rain or wind to prevent stem damage.
