Planting Instructions

- Choose a location that receives full sunlight for optimal growth.
Planting Details

- Spacing: Space tubers 18–24 inches apart to allow for proper growth and airflow.
- Soil Requirements: Prefers well-drained, fertile soil with a pH of 6.0–7.0.
- Sunlight: Full sun is ideal for optimal blooming, although it can tolerate partial shade in warmer climates.
Care Instructions
Watering
- Keep the soil consistently moist, ensuring that the plants receive about 1 inch of water per week. Water deeply to encourage strong root growth.
- Avoid wetting the foliage to reduce the risk of fungal diseases.
Fertilization
- Apply a balanced fertilizer (e.g., 10-10-10) at planting time and again when plants are about 6 inches tall to promote healthy growth.
- Continue fertilizing every 4–6 weeks throughout the growing season to maintain vibrant blooms.
Weeding and Mulching
- Regularly remove weeds around the base of the plants to prevent competition for nutrients.
- Mulch around the plants to retain moisture, keep the soil cool, and suppress weed growth.
Pest and Disease Control
- Pests: Watch for aphids, spider mites, and slugs. Use insecticidal soap or natural remedies such as neem oil to protect your plants.
- Diseases: Dahlia Break Out can be susceptible to fungal diseases like powdery mildew. Avoid overhead watering and ensure adequate air circulation to prevent this.
Harvesting

- For Tubers: After the first frost, carefully dig up the tubers, dry them thoroughly, and store them in a cool, dry location for the winter.
Storage
Short-Term: Cut flowers can be stored in a vase with fresh water. Change the water every few days to keep the blooms fresh. Long-Term: Store tubers in a cool, dry location (around 40°F or 4°C) for winter storage. Ensure that they are completely dry before storing to avoid rot.
