Highlights:
- Use: Indoor Plants
- Variety: Lavender
- Full-bloom Period: Spring
- Quantity: 100 Seeds
- Soil requirements: Lavender seeds prefer well-draining, sandy or loamy soil with a pH level between 6.5 and 7.5. Ensure the soil is not too rich in organic matter, as lavender thrives in lean soil conditions.
- Sunlight needs: Lavender requires full sun, which means at least 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight per day. Place the potted plant in a sunny location to ensure optimal growth.
- Watering requirements: Water lavender seeds sparingly. Allow the soil to dry out between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so it's crucial to maintain a balance. Water the plant when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch.
- Planting season: The best time to plant lavender seeds is in the spring, after the last frost has passed. This allows the seeds to germinate and grow during the warmer months.
- Depth and spacing: Plant lavender seeds at a depth of 1/8 inch (3 mm) and space them about 12 to 18 inches apart if planting multiple seeds in a larger pot or garden bed. For individual pots, ensure the pot is at least 12 inches in diameter.
- Germination time: Lavender seeds typically take 14 to 28 days to germinate. Keep the soil consistently moist during this period and maintain a temperature of around 70°F (21°C) for optimal germination.
- Maturity time: Lavender plants usually reach maturity in about 90 to 200 days, depending on the variety and growing conditions.
- Harvesting time: The best time to harvest lavender is in the early morning after the dew has dried but before the heat of the day. This helps preserve the essential oils in the flowers.
- Harvesting tips: Use sharp scissors or pruning shears to cut the lavender stems just above the leaves. Gather the stems into small bunches and hang them upside down in a cool, dark, and well-ventilated area to dry. Once dried, store the lavender in airtight containers away from direct sunlight to maintain its fragrance and potency.
