@@richardtelford407 Hi Richard. Many thanks for watching and the question. Generally speaking, so long as the compost is well watered prior to sowing the seeds, the compost stays moist enough through to the point of where the seeds have germinated. Once the seeds have germinated and showing a small amount of green sprouts then remove the lid from the heated propagator or remove the whole tray of seedlings from the propagator. Once out of the propagator then just keep the compost slightly on the moist side, don’t overwater. I hope you have great success in growing more Alliums 🪴🌸
@@Gladiolus-sl5dq Hi. Many thanks for watching and the message. Yes you can plant the seeds now but just be mindful that the seedlings will need to kept moist throughout the summer and then given winter protection. I was actually going to sow some seeds of wild garlic this weekend. All the best 🌼🌸
@@BaxtiyarIsmayilov-fj2hq Hi. Many thanks for watching and for your message. If you plant the seeds in spring of 2025 then I would expect them to produce flower in 2028. It’s not a certainty but generally 2 or 3 years from seed to flowering for the smaller Allium types. Alternatively, if you don’t want to wait that long then you can lift and divide the bulbs to produce new clumps. The original bulbs would flower next year as normal but with the smaller bulbs flowering the following year. Hope this helps 🪴🌸
Hi. Do you ever re-wet the material in the heated propagator at all? Thanks for the vid.
