Hey all
I will be getting some seeds soon and I was wondering how to sow them. I hav gotten some info from the person sending me the seeds but I dont wanna mess anything up. Here are my questions mainly: Wat conditions, wat soil, and how to grow them successfully, pretty much. Thanks!
Yes,
Ive red that and I was looking for more of a climate thing here. How much light, temp, humidity and the such. Also, I got some plastic circular trays that are about 10" across. Do u think one will hold a hundred seeds?
Hmmm...... not for me! I had N.mirabilis seeds sent to me 3X and I tried various approaches, involving heat, light, time, and humidity. Nary a one germinated.
I've got some tips on my website. Obviously there are big differences in highland and lowland seed, and I specialise in highland species. Seedlings will grow in very low light levels for many months, and need to be slowly accustomed to higher light levels.
I currently have the same types of nep seeds as you in my nep pots.
due to the lack of space, I had to sow them wherever there is empty space. The top layer is always sphagnum moss. Temperature are in the 80s both day and night and humidity level is always >60%. I have N. mirabilis x coccinea seeds germinate within a month for me under the same conditions.
