Ocimum AMERICANUM

Sowing and germination

Seeds are sown in a light, breathable mixture for seedlings, lightly sprinkled on top, moistened with a spray bottle, placed in a greenhouse or covered with film and germinated in the light, but not in the sun at a temperature of 22-26°C. The seedlings need ventilation. It is necessary to avoid waterlogging and drying out of crops. Seeds germinate in 5-10 days. When the seedlings reach a height of 5 cm, they are planted in separate pots, containers or in a permanent place in the garden.
