Summers have ended and Monsoon has arrived. It's that time of the year when humidity is high and temperature is warm(but not hot). These conditions make it fairly easy to grow anything. Be it any plants from seed. Or any cutting from plants.
I have started sowing some of the seeds that I had saved last year. I prepared the growing medium myself.
It includes Coco peat, compost, Perlite, Vermiculite and garden soil. For containers I am using paper cups and old plastic tubs with holes punched in at the base.

Soaking the medium |
My experience is that if the medium is well soaked, then I will get sprouts very early. This time I got Gazania, Petunia and Stock sprouts in about 3 days!

I'm gonna take care of these little seedlings for now. Hoping they grow on to produce beautiful flowers.
Will do an update when they are big enough to transplant.
