Some knowledge about growing from seed is necessary to germinate even the easiest seeds.
Most seeds require humidity to germinate, even desert plants like
Welwitschia mirabilis
require that their growing medium remains moist until germination.
Most seeds require oxygen to germinate, if buried too deep in their growing medium, or if the medium is too wet,
the seeds may not get the oxygen they require.
Meconopsis grandis seeds will usually germinate in 14-28 days, even under good conditions germination may be erratic.
Sow Meconopsis grandis seeds on the surface of moist compost, use a translucent cover to allow light in and to keep the compost humid and warm (do not place in direct sunlight) Keep slightly moist. |
