🌱 Planting Instructions:
- For better germination and healthier plants, cold stratification is HIGHLY recommended! Just store them in the refrigerator in an air tight, light proof moisture proof container for 2 weeks before planting, not the freezer, modern freezers can get to cold and kill the germ.
- Sow seeds in early spring or late fall for best results.
- Scatter seeds on the soil surface and lightly press down—DO NOT BURY OR COVER in soil. Poppy seeds require light to germinate!
- Keep the soil moist until germination, this step is VERY important. Do not let them dry out, but don't over water either or they will rot.
- If the temperature is over 85F your seeds may struggle to germinate and may want to consider germinating indoors and transplanting when there larger. Poppies can handle light frost and snow for short periods, and are very drought tolerant once established.
- Watch these majestic beauties grow and bloom! Poppies will grow in very bad soil, but a little fertilizer never hurts. About a 5-10-10 NPK Ratio is ideal for growing giant seed heads.
