How to Grow PETUNIAS from SEEDS (Part 1) Collecting and Germinating Petunia Seeds

So last fall I decided to collect some petunia seeds from the hanging baskets we grew. In this video, I'll show you how I grow petunias from those seeds. We'll go through the process I used for collecting and germinating the petunia seeds and then growing them on for a few months. Through the process, you'll see how long it takes to grow petunias from seeds.

Here's Part 2 of the series on germinating petunia seeds: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nKO9eYtsdtWnpdk We'll plant these little seedlings in a hanging basket and watch them bloom!

[@Sheboss333]

😂 yay chobani! I use the same containers for EVERYthing! Thanks for the content, new subscriber here! Beautiful 💙

[@t3chn0dr0n3]

Last year, I collected some of the blossoms after they started falling and kept them in a box, hidden in a dry, cool drawer. Then in spring, I sprinkled them over a flower box with soil, watered them and left them to do their thing. It's mid-summer now and that box is sprawling with petunias - they're just so easy to grow and so pretty!

[@sallyloosli4379]

Your excitement is contagious!!!!

[@MikeKincaid79]

Happy to infect! lol

[@leecastle1465]

Hiya Mike from Epsom 🇬🇧 I collect the seed pods every year, for many years, and put them in paper envelopes (not plastic bags cos they will go mouldy), close the flap but don't seal, let them dry out and the pods 'pop' ejecting the dust like seed into the envelope. You end up with thousands of seeds! I transplant the seedlings in very small bunches quite early on, they need space as they grow rapidly. Petunias are amazing as the seedlings are so tiny but grow into large plants at warp speed 🙂 I find them growing naturally everywhere below my hanging baskets, win win! 😂 Yours look very healthy 👍🏻 Btw I find it useful to 'water' the seeds initially by putting the pots in a tray of water, I don't use a watering can cos it washes the seed out, when they dry out I then use a fine spray mist from a spray bottle, it disturbs them less. Hope this helps ❤

[@MikeKincaid79]

Great tips, thank you Lee! Looking forward to seeing what type of blooms I get here.

[@blommfleuriste]

I was kinda mad last year when I bought a white petunia seed packet for $5 and there was 15 seeds in it. Then fall came and I was amazed to find infinite white petunia seeds! Never buying them again!! 😁

Live and learn, but hey, now ya know!

[@monkeygraborange]

This year I bought a Gomphrena Las Vegas mix packet of 20 seeds for almost $10 with shipping. Every single one of them sprouted. Next year I could potentially have 80,000 gomphrena . That’s how the seed business works... buy once, cry once.

I like to seek out the seed pods. They are like a small pea and you can roll them between your fingers and they crunch right out. Saving seeds is very rewarding. Keep sharing your journey. Gardening is such an adventure.

[@sketchcatandsterlingthedoo3193]

I love stocking a bunch to save for an idle evening. Even just cracking the pods and sorting the seeds from the rest of the mess with tweezers scratches an itch I never knew I had.

When I grow them from seed I try to just put maybe 10 seeds in a 4” pot. And sometimes I’ve had to divide them. But the easiest way I’ve found is from your petunia cutting video tutorial

cracking me up collecting seeds like that 😆 I'll have to try that. I usually just collect them after the flower blooms. once they are strong enough you can thin them out with stronger ones in a different containers so the smaller ones will have more room. that's what I did anyway.

I have been leaving my petunia hanging baskets just stay where they are all winter. Not dumping them , but just letting them be. In the spring, I get lots of new tiny plants.

So do petunias put out seeds even if they weren't pollinated? I bought a petunia plant to put outside, but I haven't done so yet. Those flowers are powerhouses it keeps putting out flowers. I noticed seeds also falling out so I decided to collect them and see if they grow. I did see that they should just be sown on top of geowing medium and that they needed light to sprout. It's been a week now and nothing. Wondering also if maybe the seeds from the plant are just sterile?

I save my seed pods and dry them in a coffee filter. My favorite part is seeing what odd colors you get from saving hybrid plant seeds.

I tried the petunia cutting method to propagate mines, and it didn’t work for some reason. I kept it on the windowsill, there were five or six cuttings total, and none of them have rooted, and it’s been one month. I didn’t have rooting hormone, so I dipped each one in raw honey dissolved in water. Do you think maybe that’s why? I kept the soil moist and I kept them on the windowsill

If the sun hit the plastic container then it may have heated up too much. If you didn't use a container or plastic/glass cover then they may have dried out.

[@bachirchouika7705]

Interesting video Mike But the question will you get original petunias ?

[@MikeKincaid79]

The seedlings will all be a variable group of generic petunias. They will not stay true to the parent plant. You would have to take cuttings to do that, or breed 2 identical parents that were stable and you'd still get some variation with that method.
