Growing Instructions

Soil:
Use loose, fertile, and well-draining sandy or loamy soil enriched with compost or vermicompost. A soil pH of approximately 6.0–7.5 is suitable.

Recommended Sowing Time in Pakistan:
Best sown during October and November, when temperatures are moderate.

Seed Preparation:
Soak the seeds in warm water for 12–24 hours before sowing. This may help soften the seed coat and support germination.

Sowing Method:
Sow the seeds approximately ¼–½ inch deep in seed trays, pots, or garden beds. Keep a distance of around 6–8 inches between established plants.

Watering:
Keep the soil lightly and consistently moist during germination. Avoid overwatering or allowing water to remain around the roots.

Sunlight:
Place the plant in full sun to partial shade. Adequate light supports healthy growth and flowering.

Germination:
Seeds may germinate in approximately 7–14 days under suitable temperature, moisture, and soil conditions. Germination time can vary according to growing conditions.

Care and Maintenance:
Remove dried flowers and damaged growth when required. Protect young seedlings from frost, intense afternoon heat, and prolonged waterlogging. Avoid repeatedly touching young plants, as frequent leaf-folding may temporarily use the plant’s energy.
