- Soil requirements: Red Centaurea Cyanus, commonly known as Red Cornflower or Bachelor's Button, prefers well-drained soil with a pH level between 6.0 and 7.5. The soil should be moderately fertile and can be sandy, loamy, or clayey.
- Sunlight needs: These seeds require full sun to thrive. Ensure they receive at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily.
- Watering requirements: Water the seeds regularly but avoid overwatering. The soil should be kept moist but not waterlogged. Watering once or twice a week is usually sufficient, depending on the climate and soil conditions.
- Planting season: The best time to plant Red Centaurea Cyanus seeds is in early spring after the last frost or in late fall. In mild climates, fall planting is preferred for early spring blooms.
- Depth and spacing: Plant the seeds at a depth of 1/4 inch (0.6 cm) and space them about 6-12 inches (15-30 cm) apart to allow for proper growth and air circulation.
- Germination time: The seeds typically germinate within 7-14 days under optimal conditions.
- Maturity time: Red Centaurea Cyanus flowers usually reach maturity and start blooming within 60-90 days after planting.
- Harvesting time: The best time to harvest the flowers is early in the morning when the blooms are fresh and fully open.
- Harvesting tips: Use sharp scissors or pruning shears to cut the flowers. For seed saving, allow the flowers to dry on the plant and collect the seeds once they are fully mature and dry. Store the seeds in a cool, dry place in an airtight container.
