Growing location : Grow outdoors, in a pallet collar or larger pot on the balcony in a sunny-partially shaded location.
AT SOWING
Direct sow outdoors when the soil has warmed up in spring APRIL-JUNE. The sow thistle can also be sown in autumn in SEPT-OCT for early flowering the following year. Water the soil thoroughly before sowing. Poke the seeds about 0.1 cm into the soil with a distance of 20 cm between each seed and 20 cm between each row. If you sow more densely, you can thin out when the plants have emerged.
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.
Clear weeds that come up between the plants.
HARVEST FESTIVAL
Harvest and enjoy. Approximately 2-3 months after sowing, the harvest festival begins. Regularly remove excess blooms for a longer flowering period.
