How to Plant and Care for Yellow Calibrachoa Seeds
Starting Seeds
Sow Yellow Calibrachoa seeds indoors 8 to 10 weeks before the last expected frost date. Use a well-draining seed-starting mix and lightly cover the small seeds with a thin layer of soil. Keep the soil moist and warm (around 70-75°F or 21-24°C). Germination typically occurs in 14-21 days.
Transplanting Seedlings
Once the seedlings have grown strong enough and the danger of frost has passed, transplant them outdoors or into containers. Choose a location with full sun and well-draining soil. Space plants 6 to 10 inches apart to allow for adequate air circulation and healthy growth.
Watering
While Yellow Calibrachoa is drought-tolerant, it thrives best with regular watering. Keep the soil evenly moist but well-drained. Avoid overwatering, as this can lead to root rot. Water at the base of the plant to keep the foliage dry and reduce the risk of fungal diseases.
Lighting
Yellow Calibrachoa requires full sun to bloom profusely, so plant it in a location that receives at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily. If growing indoors, place the plant near a south-facing window with plenty of natural light, or use supplemental grow lights.
Temperature
Yellow Calibrachoa prefers warm temperatures between 65-75°F (18-24°C). It is sensitive to frost, so wait until all danger of frost has passed before planting it outdoors. Protect it from chilly winds and cold temperatures for the best results.
Fertilizing
Feed Yellow Calibrachoa with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season. This will promote strong growth and abundant flowering. Be careful not to over-fertilize, as excessive nutrients can cause excessive foliage growth with fewer blooms.
Harvesting and Propagating Yellow Calibrachoa
Deadheading
To encourage continuous blooming, remove spent flowers by pinching them off regularly. This will prevent the plant from putting energy into seed production and encourage it to produce more flowers.
Propagation by Cuttings
Yellow Calibrachoa can be propagated by taking 3-4 inch stem cuttings and rooting them in water or soil. Once rooted, transplant the new plants into containers or garden beds to grow new, vibrant blooms.
