How to Grow Dahlia Mix from Seeds: 

1. Timing:  Start Dahlia Mix seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last expected frost date in your area. Dahlias require a long growing season to establish and bloom.

2. Seed Starting Mix:  Use a well-draining seed starting mix or potting soil for indoor sowing. Fill seed trays or small pots with the mix, lightly pressing it down to ensure good seed-to-soil contact.

3. Sowing Seeds:  Place Dahlia Mix seeds on the soil surface, spacing them about 1/4 inch apart. Cover the seeds lightly with a thin layer of soil and gently press down to ensure good seed-to-soil contact.

4. Moisture:  Water the soil gently to settle the seeds in place. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. You can cover the trays or pots with a clear plastic lid or plastic wrap to help retain moisture until the seeds germinate.

5. Light:  Dahlia seeds require light for germination, so place the seed trays in a bright location, preferably near a sunny window or under grow lights. Once the seedlings emerge, remove the cover and continue to provide adequate light.

6. Germination:  Dahlia seeds typically germinate within 7-14 days when kept at temperatures around 65-75°F (18-24°C). Once the seedlings emerge, thin them to about 12-18 inches apart to give them room to grow.

7. Transplanting:  When the seedlings have developed several sets of true leaves and all risk of frost has passed, they can be transplanted into the garden. Choose a location with full sun and well-draining soil.

8. Care:  Dahlias prefer regular water to keep the soil evenly moist, especially during dry spells. Provide support for taller varieties to prevent them from flopping over. Deadhead spent flowers regularly to promote continuous blooming.

By following these simple steps, you can grow a stunning array of Dahlia flowers from seeds, adding beauty and color to your garden throughout the growing season.
