SKMO Apricot Lemonade Cosmos Vegetable Heirloom 200 Seeds Bulk Indoor Gardening Instructions: 1. Prepare Soil: Choose well-draining soil. Cosmos thrive in average garden soil and do not require rich soil. Loosen the soil to a depth of at least 6-8 inches and remove any rocks or debris. 2. Start Indoors (Optional): For earlier blooms, start cosmos seeds indoors 4-6 weeks before the last frost date. Use seed trays or pots filled with seed-starting mix. 3. Plant Seeds: Sow cosmos seeds about inch deep in the soil or seed trays. Water gently after planting. 4. Provide Warmth: Cosmos germinate best in warm temperatures. Keep seed trays in a warm location or use a heat mat to encourage germination. 5. Provide Sunlight: Cosmos need plenty of light to thrive. Place seed trays in a bright location or under grow lights if starting indoors. 6. Maintain Moisture: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water from the bottom of seed trays to avoid disturbing seeds. 7. Transplant: Once cosmos seedlings have developed true leaves and the danger of frost has passed, transplant them into the garden. Space seedlings 12-18 inches apart, depending on the variety. 8. Provide Full Sun: Cosmos prefer full sun. Choose a location that receives at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight per day. 9. Watering: Water cosmos plants regularly, especially during dry periods. They prefer moderately moist soil but are somewhat drought-tolerant once established. 10. Fertilize (Optional): Cosmos do not require much fertilization. Too much fertilizer can result in fewer flowers and more foliage. If desired, apply a balanced fertilizer sparingly. 11. Deadhead: Remove spent flowers (deadheading) to encourage continuous blooming throughout the growing season.
