Instructions
- Remove the soil and seeds packet. Leave the clay pebbles at the bottom and fill with soil.
- Open the seeds packet, sprinkle a few seeds on top of the soil and slightly cover the seeds until half centimeter.
- Keep the soil moisten but not over-watering (a bottle spray works well).
- Cover with a plastic bag and set in a warm place with natural light but without direct sun.
- Check daily if the soil is moisten. When the seeds germinate (7-14 days), remove the plastic bag and keep in a natural light spot.
- Add water when the soil appears to be dry. When the plants are mature they need water every day.
Cuidados e Dicas
- How long does it take to grow?
The European pine or fir grows about 2 cm per year. After germination, if multiple shoots sprout, when they reach about 2 to 4 cm, you should remove the weaker ones and leave only the strongest. If you transplant it to a larger pot or garden, it will develop more quickly.
- Will it grow again?
The pine will not grow again.
- How often should I water it?
The pine likes moist soil, but not soggy. Check with your finger in the soil: if it feels dry, water near the soil with the equivalent of a coffee cup. In summer, it requires more regular watering. Remember that the Grow Cork does not have a drainage hole, and if it retains too much water at the bottom, it may harm the plant.
- Should I place it outside or move it to a pot?
Our kits are designed for indoor use, in a location with light and direct sunlight, but they can be placed outdoors in a sheltered spot. After one year, you should move the pine to a larger pot or garden so that it develops more quickly.
