How long does it take flower seeds to sprout indoors?
Some seeds will also take their time germinating. While most will be up in four to seven days, for some it’s normal to take three to four weeks to get going. They start sprouting within a day or 2! Put seeds on a wet paper towel, put in a ziploc, and put in a warm place. Voila! I then transplant them into a small pot of soil.
What month is best to plant flower seeds?
In the very early Spring (end of January to March) you can sow hardy annual seeds. These are seeds that will produce plants that are tolerant of frost – they’ll put on strong deep roots all winter long and produce flowers from June until the first frosts (where I live in Surrey that happens in early November). Herb seeds such as basil, dill, chives, and parsley can be sown now and grown on your windowsill throughout the winter. Sow spring onion ‘Performer’ under cloches — they’ll be ready to start harvesting in the spring. Sow cauliflower ‘All the Year Round’ and keep the plants in a cold frame until the spring.
