Temperatur
12-18 °C (54-64 °F) or grow outdoors. Vernalization is not required for the plants to initiate flowers. However, if vernalized, plants produce a higher number of flowering stems in the second year. Plants may be overwintered in house at 3-5 °C (37-41 °F) or in the field. Force at 12-15 °C (54-59 °F).
Düngung
Requires medium to high nutrient levels.
Stage I Starts with the radicle breaking through the testa. The roots are touching the medium. Ends with fully developed cotyledons.
Stage II Starts from fully developed cotyledons. Ends with the fully developed true leaf or true leaf pair.
Stage III Starts from the fully developed true leaf or true leaf pair and ends with 80% of the young plants being marketable.
Stage IV All young plants are ready for sale and in the process of being hardened off. This stage lasts about 7 days.
The cultural recommendations are based on results from trials conducted under Central European conditions. Different conditions in other parts of the world may lead to deviations in results achieved.
