Petunia Growing Season In India 

In India, petunias are typically grown during the cool, dry months of late fall, winter, and early spring (October to March). Avoid planting during the hot summer months, and protect them from heavy monsoon rains.

How To Grow Petunia 

Most gardeners recommend the transplanting seedling method as it helps it to grow healthy and the petunia has no deep roots so it does not have any problem with the transplant. Since its roots are not long, a pot at least 22 wide and 15 cm deep is sufficient for planting petunia. The ideal temperature for petunia seeds to germinate is around 21-26°C.

Petunia Double Glorious Mix Seeds Sowing Method 

Take a seedling tray fill them with a potting mix, spread the petunia seeds on the soil, and press them gently. You can also make your own potting mix by mixing 20% cocopeat, 30% vermicompost, 30% garden soil, and 20% sand. Petunias need light to germinate but do not place the seedling tray in direct sunlight, keep them in indirect sunlight. Water the soil gently and keep them moist until germination; petunia can germinate in about 1 to 2 weeks. After seed germination when petunia seedlings have a few true leaves, you can transplant them into pots or grow bags. Remember, plant only one seedling in each 22 cm wide pot for healthy growth.

Petunia Fertilizer Requirements

• Balanced fertilizer or compost is the best fertilizer for petunias that should be added during planting.
• Also, apply a dose of liquid fertilizer every 2-3 weeks for healthy petunia growth.

Temperature – The optimum day temperature for growing petunia is 15-29 °C while the night temperature is 12-18 °C.
Common pests and diseases – Pests such as aphids, fleas, beetles, slugs, and snails feed on the plants. And gray mold disease infects plants, especially during the rainy season. You can use neem oil to repel insects on petunia plants, and gray mold disease can be controlled by removing infected leaves or flowers.
