01 / Prepare the seed
Check the requirements of your species before sowing. Clean seeds and use clean containers. Some species benefit from soaking or scarification, but these treatments are not universal.
THE CULTIVATION JOURNAL
Growing notes.
Observe patiently. Experiment thoughtfully.
Every remarkable plant starts with a small beginning.
02 / Balance moisture
Use a well-draining sowing medium. Keep it evenly moist, never waterlogged. Regular inspection and gentle ventilation can help prevent fungal growth.
03 / Maintain warmth
Many tropical species require steady warmth to germinate. Measure the temperature of the growing medium, not just the surrounding air, and follow species-specific guidance.
04 / Give it time
Germination varies widely between species and individual seeds. Record your sowing date and conditions. Once seedlings emerge, introduce suitable light gradually and avoid disturbing young roots.
