The temperature of the soil must be at least 15°C when cultivating outdoors. Water the soil before sowing and keep the plants moist by covering it with a fibre cloth until they flower.
Pre-cultivate the seeds 3-4 weeks before replanting outside. Sow 1 seed per fertilised pot and place in a warm area for sprouting (18-24°C). Once the seeds have sprouted, it is time to transplant them to larger pots and place them in a bright area. Remember to be careful with the roots.
