Sowing the Seeds

1 Fill trays with pre-moistened, fine-textured mix.

2 Place seeds on surface — do not cover with soil. Lisianthus needs light to germinate.

3 Mist lightly to settle them into contact with the mix.

4 Label trays with date and variety.

Germination Conditions

• Temperature: Keep between 21–24 °C (70–75 °F) for germination.

• Light: Provide bright light (12–16 hours/day).

• Moisture: Keep the surface evenly moist but never soggy.

• Humidity: Maintain high humidity (use a dome or cover) until germination.

Timeline

• Germination time: 10–15 days, sometimes up to 20 days.

• Remove cover once most seeds have sprouted to reduce fungal risks.

Seedling Care

• Maintain temperatures at 18–22 °C (65–72 °F) daytime and ~15 °C nighttime.

• Water gently from below or mist — avoid overhead splashing.

• Keep seedlings in bright light to prevent stretching.

• Lisianthus grows very slowly in the first 6–8 weeks — this is normal.

Transplanting

• Transplant when seedlings have 3–4 true leaves (usually 8–10 weeks after sowing).

• Plant in full sun, spacing 15–20 cm apart in beds.

• Soil should be rich, well-drained, and slightly alkaline (pH 6.5–7.0).
