How to grow Beacon Salmon Impatiens seeds

Choose Your Planting Method

• Indoors: Start seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost date.
• Outdoors: Sow outdoors after all danger of frost has passed and nights stay warm.

Prepare Your Materials

• Seed-starting trays or pots (if indoors)
• Well-draining potting mix
• Spray bottle for misting

Sowing the Seeds

• Sow on the surface of moist seed-starting mix and press gently; do not cover, as impatiens seeds need light to germinate.
• Mist to keep the surface evenly moist; cover with a humidity dome or plastic wrap until germination.

Provide the Right Conditions

• Light: Bright, indirect light for germination; seedlings grow best in bright light out of harsh midday sun.
• Temperature: 70-75°F (21-24°C) for germination.

Germination

• Seeds typically germinate in 10-14 days.
• Remove the dome once seedlings emerge and grow them on in bright, indirect light.

Transplanting

• Transplant after all danger of frost, once seedlings have several sets of true leaves.
• Harden off gradually over 7-10 days before planting out.
• Space plants 8-12 inches apart.

Care Tips

• Sun: Partial shade to full shade; tolerates morning sun with afternoon shade.
• Water: Keep soil consistently moist but not waterlogged; water more often in warm, bright spots.
• Fertilizer: Light feeding with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 2-3 weeks keeps blooms coming.
• Impatiens will not tolerate frost; plant out only when nights are reliably warm.

Bloom Time:

Late spring through fall, until the first frost.
