When and how to plant carnations

Carnation planting time

Carnations are usually planted in March and April in spring. The temperature at this time is most suitable for seed germination. After sowing, the temperature needs to be kept between 15-20 degrees. In addition to spring, they can also be planted in autumn as long as the temperature is suitable.

How to plant carnations

1. Potting soil: Carnations need to be potted with soil before sowing. It is best to use a flowerpot with drainage holes, and then prepare loose, fertile, and well-drained soil. You can also use nutrient soil directly.

2. Sowing: When sowing carnations, you can dip a toothpick in water, stick the seeds on it, then place them in the potting soil and cover them with a layer of soil. Be careful not to plant them too shallowly.

3. Maintenance: After sowing carnations, they need to be covered with an opaque plastic bag. This is beneficial for seed germination and can reduce water evaporation.

Carnation planting precautions

After carnations are sown, they will sprout after a period of time. At this time, they need to be placed in a place with sufficient light for maintenance, which is extremely beneficial for the growth of young shoots. After the seedlings emerge, they can be watered and fertilized to allow them to grow healthily.
