How to grow Evening Scentsation Trailing Petunia seeds

Choose Your Planting Method

• Indoors: Start seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost date.
• Outdoors: Sow directly outdoors once soil temperatures reach about 70°F.

Prepare Your Materials

• Seed-starting trays or cell packs (if indoors)
• Well-draining seed-starting mix
• Humidity dome or plastic wrap
• Spray bottle for misting

Sowing the Seeds

• Spread the seeds on the surface of moist mix and press in firmly; do not cover, as petunia seeds need light to germinate.
• Mist gently to avoid dislodging the tiny seeds.

Provide the Right Conditions

• Light: Plenty of bright light; give seedlings strong light to prevent legginess.
• Temperature: 70-75°F (21-24°C) for germination.
• Humidity: Cover with a dome or plastic wrap until seeds sprout.

Germination

• Seeds typically germinate in 7-10 days.
• Remove the cover once seedlings emerge and keep the soil evenly moist.

Transplanting

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

Care Tips

• Sun: Full sun for the best flowering.
• Water: Keep soil evenly moist; water at the base of the plants.
• Fertilizer: Feed regularly with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 2-3 weeks for vigorous bloom.
• Trimming spent blooms occasionally encourages even more flowering.
