• Germination Instructions: Start germinating Asiatic Dayflower seeds in a greenhouse from late February to early March. Soak the seeds in 25-27℃ (77-81℉ ) water for 8-10 hours, then allow them to sprout at the same temperature for 3-5 days. Once the seeds show signs of sprouting, sow them evenly in rows or by broadcasting in well-prepared beds, with a row spacing of 10-15 cm (4-6 inches). Cover the seeds lightly with soil and gently press down to maintain moisture. Under optimal temperature and humidity, seedlings will emerge in about a week. After germination, reduce temperature and humidity to prevent excessive seedling growth.
