Dichondra ARGENTEA 'SILVER FALLS'

Sowing and germination

Seeds are pre-soaked overnight in warm water with the addition of a growth stimulant, then sown in a loose substrate to a depth of 0.5-0.8 cm, moistened with a spray bottle, covered with film and germinated in the light, but not in the sun at a temperature of 22-25°C. The seedlings need ventilation. It is necessary to avoid waterlogging and drying out of crops. The first shoots usually appear after 8-10 days, after which the amount of watering should be reduced. Young plants are removed from the greenhouse when they reach a height of 8-10 cm, grown at a temperature of 22-25 ° C, while adult plants are periodically moistened. The sprouts are transplanted into separate containers and pinched when they reach a height of 15-17 cm. They are planted in open ground after 8-10 shoots have been released and good warm weather has established outside.
