What is the best season to plant carnations?

Which month is suitable for planting carnations?

Carnations are suitable for sowing around April in spring. The climate during this period is relatively suitable and very suitable for them to germinate. If the indoor temperature can be controlled between 15-20℃ in winter, they can also be sown at this time.

However, the sowing time is different in different regions. The temperature should not be too low or too high during sowing. Sowing must not be carried out in summer.

How to plant carnations

1. Potting soil: Before planting carnations, you should prepare the pots first. You also need to prepare sandy soil with strong air permeability. You can buy nutrient soil directly at the flower shop, place it in the pot and wait for sowing.

2. Sowing: Try to use a toothpick when sowing. Dip the toothpick in water and stick the seeds on it. Then place them in the soil in the pot. Don't plant them too shallowly. It should be noted that try not to sow with your hands to avoid the seeds getting moldy.

Points to note when planting carnations

1. Soil: Carnation is a herbaceous flower with fibrous roots. It likes to grow in loose, fertile and well-permeable soil. Sandy loam is the best.

2. Temperature: Carnations are suitable for growing in a cool environment, and the optimum temperature for growth and development is around 20°C. If the temperature is too high during the day, carnations will have narrow leaves, small flowers, and poor branching.
