Sowing Guide

Early Sowing/Module Sowing

Soak the lupin seeds for 24 hours in clean water before sowing.
Sow the seeds in pots, trays or modules. Place the containers in a clear polythene bag and seal, leave in a warm location. Or if preferred place in a propagator.
Once germination has started remove the container from the bag or propagator. Move to a location with good daylight and a reduced temperature. Keep the vulnerable seedlings away from frost.
When the seedlings are large enough to handle prick out into individual 7.5 cm diameter pots.

Direct Sowing

For best results start the plants indoors.

Growing On

Keep the compost moist however avoid overwatering.
The plants will need re-potting when they have outgrown their pot. This may need repeating several times.
Plant out when the lupin's are 25 - 30 cm tall and when all risk of frost has passed. Water well especially in hot dry weather.
The lupins will benefit from having some supports added as they grow taller to prevent damage from high winds etc. (especially in exposed areas).

TIP

The seeds if eaten may cause severe discomfort.
