Daisy Seed Planting Method

1. Seed treatment

First, you need to select daisy seeds with full grains and uniform size. In order for the seeds to germinate as quickly as possible, soak them in warm water and take them out after one day. This can shorten the dormancy period of the seeds and facilitate germination.

2. Sowing

The soil for growing daisy seedlings must be loose, breathable and fertile. The soil should be sprayed with water before planting. The seeds can be mixed with fine sand and then evenly sprinkled on the surface of the soil. Finally, cover it with a thin layer of soil and keep the temperature at around 20℃ in the later stage.
