 Let them swell in water and put them in a plastic pot. Alternatively, a commercially available sowing substrate can also be used.

Spread a few seeds on the peat well and cover thinly with the sowing substrate (about 2 mm).

Then place the plastic pot in a zip-lock bag - for a 6 cm pot size, a 120 x 170 mm zip-lock bag is recommended. Put enough tap water in the zip-lock bag with a few drops of universal fertilizer so that a few mm of water remain after the substrate has been vacuumed up.

Location: on the window sill or in a mini greenhouse in partial shade, during the day the temperatures should be around 24 - 28 C, at night a little lower at 20 - 24 C.

Price is for 20 seeds
