Planting Instructions:
- Soil Preparation: Choose a sunny spot and prepare the soil by loosening it to a depth of 6-8 inches. Gypsophila prefers well-drained, slightly alkaline soil. Add lime if necessary to adjust the pH level.
- Sowing: Sow seeds directly outdoors after the last frost or start indoors 4-6 weeks before the last frost. Plant seeds 1/16 inch deep and lightly cover them with soil. Space the seeds 8-12 inches apart in rows.
- Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist until germination, which typically occurs within 10-14 days. Once established, Gypsophila plants are drought-tolerant and require minimal watering.
- Care: Gypsophila is low-maintenance and requires minimal care. Thin seedlings to 12 inches apart to prevent overcrowding and ensure proper air circulation.
- Fertilization: Fertilize the plants lightly with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer if the soil is not naturally rich in nutrients.
Growing Tips:
- Spacing: Ensure proper spacing between plants to allow for air circulation and prevent disease.
- Pest Control: Monitor for common pests such as aphids and spider mites. Treat infestations promptly with insecticidal soap or neem oil.
- Pruning: Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming and prevent self-seeding. Cut back the plants after flowering to promote bushier growth.
