Gardeners’ Forum: “Begonias”
Back to Gardeners’ ForumBegonias
Posted by Bo on Tuesday, March 10, 2009 5:09 PM ADTI am a gardener venturing into the mysterious world of planting annuals. I have heated planting trays, lights, heat, water from bottom yet my seedling begonias are still tiny. To quote the reference available on this site: When plants are large enough, transplant into flats or larger pots and continue fertilizing with full strength fertilizer once per week until plants bulk up. Provide 14-18 hours of light per day to increase growth. WHEN do I know it's time to transplant? Please help?
