4. Later management

When cultivating impatiens, use loose, breathable, and fertile soil. Seeds must be germinated and soaked before planting. Just soak them in clean water for a day to promote germination as soon as possible. When sowing, you can sow on demand, put three seeds in each hole, cover with soil, water and moisten, and seedlings will emerge soon. In addition, management should be strengthened in the later period, fertilization should be carried out regularly, and weeds should be removed frequently to promote more vigorous growth.

1. Prepare the soil

When cultivating impatiens, you should use loose, breathable and fertile soil, preferably sandy soil, mixed with an appropriate amount of base fertilizer. If planting on the ground, the land must be prepared in advance and base fertilizer must be applied, so that the plants can grow more vigorously later.

2. Seed processing

When planting, the seeds should be treated first to shorten the dormancy time of the seeds. The seeds can be soaked directly in clean water for about a day, so that the seeds can absorb a lot of water and germinate faster. After soaking, take it out and place it in a cool place to dry. When there is no moisture on the surface, you can sow the seeds.

3. Sowing and planting

Pay attention to the time of sowing, preferably in March and April, when the climate is more suitable, which is conducive to germination and later growth. When sowing, you can use the on-demand method, just put the seeds in directly. Place three seeds in each hole, cover them with two centimeters of soil after planting, and water and moisten them.

4. Post-production management

As long as the climate and temperature are suitable, the seeds will germinate and grow seedlings soon. Pay attention to management during the seedling period. It is best to apply phosphate lime once to promote root growth. After the plant matures, decomposed farmyard manure is added every other month to promote vigorous growth. In addition, if any weeds are found, they should be removed to avoid competition.
