Planting flower seeds??

It says to plant seeds an inch apart.


Only problem is they are so tiny! (smaller than an ant!!)


So its kind of hard to do so.


So, I just kinda scattered them.





Do you think they'll still grow fine???

Planting flower seeds??
Planting tiny seeds is hard. If the seeds are too close, when they germinate you will see plants closer than the recommended distance. You can then thin out the plants to the correct distance by hand pulling. This is far easier than trying to scatter the seed correctly.
Reply:sprinkle them and lightly cover with soil. they will still be about 2 cms apart and grow well.this is waht all gardeners do and as in the case of carrots when the saplings are big enough remove the extra ones so they have space to grow as they cant be replanted
Reply:Yes, probably! They will probably do okay, just treat them like you would if they WERE one inch apart and they will probably bloom ayokay.
Reply:They will sprout just the same, but you may want to thin out the weaker ones/ones too close together so the remaining ones thrive better.
Reply:they'll grow just fine. But you'll need to carefully thin them out as they sprout. This is how I did it this year. And they're doing great. Good luck!
