SOWING AND HARVESTING ORNAMENTAL GRASSES
Growing location: Grown outdoors/in a flowerbed or in a pallet collar in a sunny location (6-7 hours of sun/day).
AT SOWING
Directly sow the ornamental grass outdoors in its growing location when the soil has had time to warm up. Prepare the growing location – clear weeds, loosen the soil with a rake, fill in with a layer of nutrient-rich potting soil, rake it smooth and water the soil thoroughly. (For more information on how to prepare a growing location – see our website). Poke the seed about 0.5 cm into the soil with 20 cm between each seed. Cover the seeds with soil and water gently. The seeds usually germinate 1-3 weeks after sowing.
Mark the sowing with markers. Specify the variety and date.
Water carefully from above so as not to wash away the seeds. Keep moist during germination.
DURING THE SEASON/OTHER TIPS
Water regularly throughout the season if it doesn't rain. It's better to water more and less often than to water a little every day.
Fertilize a few times during the season.
Clear weeds that come up between the plants and remove uninvited guests such as snails and slugs.
HARVEST FESTIVAL
Harvest and enjoy about 2 months after sowing and you can start harvesting the beautiful ornamental grass.
