20 days 65˚F
Pre-chill seed for one week before sow- ing. Pre-water seed fl ats 24 hours prior to sowing with a soil drench such as Banrot, as seed is sensitive to high moisture levels. Sow without additional watering in. Main- tain an even soil temperature of 65˚F to in- crease germination. Cover fl ats with black plastic to provide darkness until germina- tion begins, then remove. Verbena seeds are poor germinators, so allow for, at best, 50-65% to germinate.
