How to Germinate Amaranth Pygmy Torch

How to Germinate Amaranth Pygmy Torch
  • Sow seeds directly on the soil surface and press lightly; do not cover them, as they require light to germinate.
  • Plant seeds outdoors in late spring when the soil temperature is consistently above 65°F (18°C).
  • Space seeds 10-12 inches apart for optimal growth and airflow.
  • Water gently after planting and keep the soil consistently moist until seeds germinate, usually within 7-14 days.
  • Choose a sunny location with well-draining soil for the best growth of Amaranth Pygmy Torch.
  • Thin seedlings as needed to avoid overcrowding and ensure strong, healthy plants.

Additional Tips
  • Amaranth Pygmy Torch prefers full sun and thrives in well-draining soil.
  • Water regularly, especially during dry periods, but avoid overwatering as amaranth is somewhat drought-tolerant.
  • Incorporate compost or a balanced fertilizer into the soil at planting time to support healthy growth.
  • Harvest the flowers when they are fully mature to use as stunning dried arrangements.
  • Mulch around the base of the plants to retain soil moisture and reduce weed competition.
