**RARE** Hon Tsai Tsai Seeds

10 Seeds Per Pack

When should you plant hon tsai tai? You have two options: in spring or early summer. The trick is to make sure that temperatures don’t exceed 77 °F (25 °C). Hon tsai tai prefers growing in cool weather, which will stimulate abundant growth. Temperatures around 57 °F (14 °C) will also give the stems a sweeter taste and deepen their purple color.

Sowing: June and harvesting it in early or mid-autumn for best results. If you’re planning spring sowing, you can germinate the seeds indoors and transplant them to your garden once temperatures remain steady above 50 °F (10 °C).

Before sowing, take the time to prepare the soil by incorporating compost into the substrate. This way, you will create a nutrient-rich substrate that will provide your plants with all the minerals they need to grow. You won’t have to worry about applying fertilizers later on.

Germination: Hon tsai tai seeds are small and easy to work with and don’t require soaking before you sow them. They need a temperature range of 65 °F to 75 °F (18 °C to 24 °C) to germinate, and the hon tsai tai seedlings will pop out after about 7 days.
