How to grow Baby Doll Carnations seeds

Choose Your Planting Method

• Indoors: Start seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost.
• Outdoors: Sow outdoors after the last frost, or in late summer in mild climates.

Prepare Your Materials

• Seed-starting trays or pots (if indoors)
• Well-draining potting mix
• Clear plastic wrap or a humidity dome
• Spray bottle for misting

Sowing the Seeds

• Press seeds into the surface of moist seed-starting mix and cover with only a fine sprinkling of mix — light aids germination
• Keep the medium evenly moist but not waterlogged

Provide the Right Conditions

• Light: Bright light; do not exclude light during germination
• Temperature: 65-75°F (18-24°C)
• Humidity: Cover with plastic wrap or a dome until germination, then ventilate

Germination

• Seeds germinate in 7-14 days
• Grow seedlings on in cooler, bright conditions (around 60°F / 16°C) so they stay compact

Transplanting

• Transplant after frost danger has passed
• Harden off over 7-10 days
• Space plants about 12 inches apart

Care Tips

• Sun: Full sun (4-6 hours minimum daily)
• Water: Water moderately, letting the top of the soil dry slightly between waterings; avoid overwatering
• Fertilizer: Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 3-4 weeks during the growing season
• Remove spent flowers regularly to encourage continued blooming and keep plants tidy

Bloom Time:

Late spring through summer.
