Kulturanleitung
Verwendung
Pots, Mixed Containers and Landscape
Kornablage
1-3 seeds per plug, depending on the pot size.
Keimbedingung
Optimum conditions for seedling development, beginning on the day of sowing until radicle emergence. Expect radicle emergence in 7-10 days. A germination chamber promotes uniform germination
Temperatur
Plug culture: 22-24 °C (72-76 °F) until radicle emergence. Afterwards, ensure 20 °C (68 °F) during night and day. When the roots reach the bottom of the cell, the temperature can be lowered to 16-18 °C ( 60-64 °F).
Growing on: 12-15 °C (54-58 °F) days and nights. Temperatures above 25 °C (77 °F) will inhibit the flower development and will increase the risk of infects with diseases. In addition, the leaves get bigger. Cooler temperatures promote stable flower stems and a compact, well-branched plant habit in pots. A frost-free outdoor production at 3-5 °C (38-40 °F) is also possible, but Limonium does not tolerate frost.
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.
