FEBRUARY

1. When planting seed, use sterile soil-less potting mix to
fill seed flats.
2. Sow seed at recommended depth and cover with plastic to
retain humidity. Uncover when germination occurs.
3. Keep in an area where temperature can be maintained at 70-72°
for optimal growth.
4. Bottom heat from a high intensity lamp will aid germination.
5. Once germination has occured, reduce temperatures to 68-70°F.
6. Indirect light from an east window will provide ample light
for the first eight hours of the day, but either a gro-lux lamp or florescent light should provide the remaining 6-8 hours of light
daily or use the above artificial lights for the entire 14-16 hours
daily. Remember plants will turn towards the light so they
should be rotated periodically.
7. Keep the artificial lights 2" above the tops of the plants
for healthiest growth.
8. Water seeds thoroughly upon planting, then use spray bottle
or mister to moisten the soil daily after seedlings emerge.
9. Transplant seedlings after they have developed their second
set of true leaves.
