How to plant canna seeds

When the canna seeds are mature, we pick out the seeds, choose those that look better and fuller, rinse them with water, place them in a ventilated place, and let them dry naturally.

Canna seeds are slightly different from other seeds. Their seed shells are relatively hard, so you can break the shells before sowing and then soak them in warm water. This will increase the germination rate. Take them out and sow them. After the canna grows a few leaves, you can transplant them.

Canna seed sowing time

When planting, you must choose a good time. You can choose February to April in spring, or August to September in autumn. The temperature during these two time periods is very stable, which is also very conducive to the germination of canna seeds. The survival rate of canna seeds is higher. However, because the temperature in each region is different, the planting time will also be slightly different.

Canna Seed Planting Method

If you use seeds to plant, you must first choose seeds of good quality, healthy and full, use a sharp knife to cut a hole in the seeds, and put them in warm water, soak for half a day or overnight, and finally sow them. They will usually germinate 2 weeks after sowing. When the seedlings grow to 2-3 leaves, you can transplant them.
