Sowing petunia
It is necessary to sow seeds from February to April for seedlings. If the seeds are in granules (and in most cases they are, the shells crumble when moisture gets on them), they should be placed on slightly moistened soil, additionally moistened from a spray bottle and covered with glass. The optimum temperature is 20-24 degrees. The soil should not be allowed to dry out, and it is also necessary to regularly collect condensation from the glass. With sufficient lighting, the gatherings appear after about two weeks. When the first leaf appears, the sowing must be aired. And then remove the glass altogether, lower the temperature to 18 degrees (petunia does not like high temperatures and waterlogging).
