Germination Group

Group 3 - Tender Annuals

These heat-loving seeds need warmer temperatures to germinate. For winter sowing, start these varieties later in the season (late winter to early spring) when temperatures begin to moderate. The jugs will warm up during sunny days, providing the heat these seeds need to sprout as spring approaches.
