Verbena OFFICINALIS

Sowing and germination

Seeds can be either immediately planted in the ground or pre-germinated indoors. The second method is more preferable, since weather changes can have a detrimental effect on planting material. Sowing in open ground is carried out in early spring, provided that the site has been prepared in the fall, in indoor conditions - at any time. When sowing, the depth of the furrows should be no more than 2 cm. Moreover, the seeds are sprinkled with a layer of humus with peat or sand. Before emergence, the soil must be kept moist all the time. You can also propagate using seedlings. To do this, seeds for seedlings are sown in pots from late February to April. Caring for seedlings is similar to other crops.
