PLANTING GUIDE:

    Asters are summer season annuals. Sow seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the potential last frost.

    • Sow aster seeds on the top of the soil surface. Barely cover them with soil.
    • Cover the pots with a layer of clear plastic wrap, which preserves moisture till the seeds sprout. Set up the tray of pots in a 70-75 Fahrenheit place that gets indirect light from sun. 
    • Take out the plastic wrap when sprouts come out. Move the pots to a spot that gets a minimum of 6 hrs of direct sun light; water the seedlings when the soil surface area dries out. Once the plants produce their 2nd set of leaves, thin the seedlings to ensure that only one aster remains in each pot.
    • Incorporate a 2-inch garden compost layer into the top of 8 inches soil, in a well-draining outdoor bed that gets 6 hours of direct sun light daily. Transplant the asters into the bed at the very same depth they were in their pots, spacing them 9 to 12 inches apart.
    • Harden the Aster plants off for 10 - 14 days before transplanting outdoors.
    • Water aster plants deeply one or two times a week, giving approx 1 inch of moist each time, make sure that the top 6 inches of soil do not dry. Spread out a 2-inch layer of mulch over the bed to support preserve the soil humidity.
    • Cut off spent blooms, and get rid of any plants that seem unhealthy to avoid the spread of diseases. Spray the asters with an insecticidal soap if leafhoppers, mites or aphids end up being an issue. Leafhoppers can spread out the aster yellows infection, so they need timely control.

    These started blooming about a month ago and not one has faded yet. They just keep going strong, with more and more buds opening each day.

    Full instructions on the packet. I plan to update this review in the spring when I see the flowers in bloom.

    I'm very surprised how fast these sprouted. Average germination time is 7-21 days but I had spouts poking through at 4 days. At day 7 I have sprouts in 48 of 72 cells. The average temperature in the house is about 70 degrees which is probably why I had such good germination rate. I can't wait to see them when they finally bloom.

    The seeds grew well in an indoor garden with 16 hours of bright light each day.
