Planting instructions
Even though Asters can be grown from seeds, germination may be uneven. It is advisable to start Aster Pompon flowers indoors during the winter season. Sow the seeds in pots or flat trays and keep them in the refrigerator for 4 to 6 weeks to simulate the winter dormancy.
Aster seeds are sown 1 inch deep into the soil. After 4 to 6 weeks, keep the pots or trays in a sunny spot in your home. You can transplant the seedlings outdoors once the danger of frost has passed.
If you are planting seedlings with the transplanting method, it is best to do it from mid to late spring. Keep a distance of 1 to 3 feet between the plants, depending upon the type of Aster you are growing and how large the plant can get.
Asters require regular watering at the time of planting and germination. After planting, add mulch to the soil to keep it cool and prevent the growth of weeds.
Growing Requirements
soil
The soil where you are planting Aster Pompon should be loamy and well drained. Optimum moisture in the soil is the basic requirement to have a conducive growing medium.
spot
Grow the flower at a spot that receives plenty of sunlight throughout the day.
temperature
The ideal temperature to grow Aster Pompon Mixed is 21 to 23°C(70 to 75°F)
watering
Ensure ample watering while planting the seeds and keep the soil moist while keeping a check on signs of wilting which indicates that the plant is not receiving enough water.
how to harvest
Asters work well as cut flowers and do not require much pruning to grow.
However, the flower bulb will ripen to a brown color and can give a unattractive look if not removed from the plant.
You can simply snip the flower from the stem with a pair of scissors or with hands.
