Germination
- Soak the peat pellet in water until it expands fully.
- Place the seed into the centre of the expanded peat pellet (as per step 2 & 3 of the printed instructions included) no more than the height of the seed deep.
- Place the peat pellet onto a tray or plate, and place the tray in a warm, bright area, like a window sill, to germinate.
- Water daily to ensure that the growing medium remains moist
- Once germination has occurred and the primary leaves have sprouted, you can transplant the entire pellet into the pot provided.
- Place potting soil or growing medium into the pots and carefully place the peat pellet into the medium, keeping the top of the pellet exposed.
- Set it in a sheltered area e.g. a covered patio with morning sun or a window sill with morning sun.
- Continue to water as necessary to keep the soil moist, not saturated.
- Note that the seeds could take up to 4 months to germinate.
