Growing bush chrysanthemum from seeds

This method of cultivation of bush chrysanthemum is not the most popular among gardeners. It is worth noting that chrysanthemum grown from seeds will not always be similar to those chrysanthemums, of which these seeds were collected. Sometimes they can get better, and sometimes worse in aesthetic plan. If you want to achieve blossoms in the same year, you will have to grow flowers across seedlings. SEE seeds in January-February, so that seedlings manage to grow. In this case, your procedure will be as follows:

1. Select the appropriate container for planting seeds and peat. Peat can be prepared independently, observing the proportions of peat and humus. And you can significantly make it easier for yourself and buy a finished earthy mixture for growing chrysanthemums in the store. In specialized stores you can also find a huge range of seedlings for growing seedlings.
2. Fill the tanks with an earthy mixture. At the bottom of the box must be maddered drainage. It may be broken brick, clayjit or gravel. Drainage is needed in order to prevent soil moistening when watering. Then fill the capacity of pre-moistened soil.
3. SEE seeds. Depending on the perennial you want to grow chrysanthemums or annuals, choose the method of laying seeds into the soil. If you grow annuals, then the seeds need to be sprinkled with an earthen layer with a thickness of about 0.5 cm. If you grow perennials, then just slightly press the seeds to the earth surface.
4. Care for sowing. Proper sowing care significantly affects the quality and speed of the first germs. As soon as you planted seeds, you need to clean them out of the pulvezer, cover with glass or polyethylene. The room temperature in which there will be bins with crops, should be high enough - 23-25 \u200b\u200bdegrees Celsius. It is not worth forget about the crops: periodically check them and spray with warm water, do not allow soil drying.

Gradually pass them to the outdoor air - first open the seedlings for 1 hour, then by 2, etc. All this time, chrysanthemums must be in a bright place.
5. Caring for the seedle. If the seedlings climbed too thickly, then it must be divened to separate containers, cups, etc. Land for transplanting remains the same as for sowing seeds. Rehend to the resetting process as carefully. You do not have to damage the gentle root system of still rapid plants. Better if you moisture the soil before transplanting. If you notice the "bad" plants - who did not drop the seed shell, weakened seedlings, then immediately select them, because They will not give germs in the open soil. After picking, it is possible to embarcate the plants with special solutions so that they do it better. After 1.5 months, seedlings will reach a height of 20 cm.
