The germination process of Impatiens seeds

1. Germination process

After the Impatiens seeds are sown in the soil, they grow very fast and will sprout in about a week. When it first starts to grow, two green embryo leaves will emerge from the soil. If the seeds are buried deep in the soil when they are sown, they will break through the soil relatively slowly. As it receives some sunlight, its small leaves will become greener.

2. Growth process

1. Leaf growth: After the seeds are planted and seedlings grow, it will take about a week for the first pair of cotyledons to grow. Then it will enter a period of vigorous growth, and the leaves of the small seedlings will quickly grow leaves. It will continuously grow some true leaves, which are actually leaves with serrated edges.

2. Buds: As it continues to grow, its buds will grow, and then it will slowly grow and bloom. When it is almost May, it is time to pinch the tops of the plants and apply some fertilizer. It will take about 10-15 days for the plant to bloom after the buds appear.

3. Save seeds: It will bear fruit about half a month after the flowers bloom, and you can harvest the seeds around September or October in autumn.
