I sowed my perennial plants seeds on these dates. Are they right? (Too early/too late)?
They are under a grow light at about 70 degrees
Columbine: 12/31/2008
Wild Flax Saphyr: 01/14/2009
Rudbeckia Goldstrum: 01/14/2009 (still not germinated!)
Dianthus Arctic Fire: 01/14/2009
Painted Daisy (Tanacetum Coccineum): 01/14/2009
Monkey Flower: 01/23/2009
Catananche Cupid’s Dart: 01/17/2009
Evening Primrose Pink Petticoats: 01/19/2009
Helenium Puberleum Autumn Lollipop: 01/21/2009
Helenium Autumnale: 01/23/2009
Chrysanthemum Koreanum: 01/21/2009
Echinacea Purpurea Lustre: 01/21/2009
Bergenia: 01/23/2009
Campanula Rotundifolia: 01/21/2009
Basil: 01/24/2009 (but I will keep it indoor under the grow light)
These are still not germinated. They are in pots sealed in plastic bags and I have been told to put them in the refrigerator after 6-8 weeks:
Hellebore: 01/19/2009
Pulsatilla Red Cloak: 01/18/2009
Anemone Japonica: 01/23/2009
Here is Mikey’s 2 cents worth. I used to do various seeds myself. I found that sowing them at any given time was not really the issue. Maybe so they were not root bound by planting time………..
I always did my Marigolds , Zinnias and such around now actually. Then come about 2 months they were mature enough and the outside environment was also ready. Sowing time is not of GREAT importance.
The most important is that all signs of a frost have past and the soil temp. needs to be around 60 degrees. Soil temp is the key.
They will sit there and not do much so don’t be impatient. When the conditions get better thru the growing season then they will do their thing.
Another key is fertilizing. Be VERY careful. The roots and mass are very weak and can’t handle a lot until they start to get some size.
Also the seedlings are more susceptible to over watering right know as well so let them come close to drying out before watering.
