Seed Germination - ANNUALS
Groning av frö - ANNUELLER
Updated mar-09

  Tabellen visar mina erfarenheter vid sådd av frö - annueller.

 Min Såmetod:
Jag sår de flesta  frö i 20°C, ofta direkt i växthuset i april/maj.
Plantorna skolas om när de är stora nog att hantera.
OBSERVERA att det ofta är bättre att så senare än rekommenderat på fröpåsarna, om utplantering inte kan göras före 10 juni.		   This table is showing my experience in sowing annual seeds.

My Method of Sowing:
I sow most of the seeds in 20°C, often starting in the greenhouse in april/may.
The plants are re-poted as soon as they are big enough to handle.
For us in the coldzone, It is often better to start the seeds later than the recommendation on the seedbags, if not possible to plant out before 10 june.
