2. The difference between spring sowing and autumn sowing

Planting nasturtiums can be done in spring from February to March, or in autumn in mid-October. However, this is only an approximate planting time and will vary depending on local temperatures. For example, the northern region is cooler, so planting can be postponed in spring and earlier in autumn. Usually, it's fine as long as you don't do it when the temperature is too high or too low.

1. Planting time

Nasturtium planting can be done in spring or autumn. Although it can be planted in both seasons, there are differences.

1. Spring sowing time: If you want to plant in spring, it is usually done around February to March. It should not be too late, because if it is done too late, the temperature will rise, which is not conducive to seed germination. Under normal circumstances, as long as the local temperature has reached 15 degrees, planting can be carried out. It can be advanced or postponed according to the local temperature.

2. Autumn sowing time: It can be done in autumn. It should be carried out in mid-October. In areas in the north where the temperature drops relatively quickly, it can be carried out earlier. In the southern region, it can be postponed appropriately. If the temperature continues to be too high, it will not be conducive to its growth.

2. The difference between spring sowing and autumn sowing

1. Growth status of spring sowing: If planted in spring, the plant will grow very quickly and the leaves will also grow very wide. However, its stem nodes are very slender and the flowering quality is not as good as when planted in autumn.

2. Growth status of autumn sowing: There will be a lot of flowers planted in autumn, but its growth cycle is relatively long. The growth of the plant is better than that planted in spring. Not only the plant shape is compact and full, but the flowering period is also long.
