Amount of seeds
When planting Candytuft flowers, how many seeds do I plant in an 8-10 inch flower pot? I bought one full pack. Do I plant them all? Please help!

Do not plant all the seeds in one pot. You want to seed thinly so there is a half inch between seeds. Not all the seeds will sprout but if you plant too thickly the seedlings will crown one another and this causes problems with growth. You can store left over seed in an air tight jar. The best advice on planting seeds is usually found from the place that sold you the seeds so read the packet for spacing and thinning instructions. Growing plants from seed is a fascinating and money saving project so good for you! Keep growing, Marianne Binetti
