Why Do I Bother Starting Daturas Inside

17 years ago

I'm never going to start a datura seed inside again. I get such erratic germination rates and they can take forever. I started a tray of multiple datura varieties outside early last week and almost every seed is already up. They'll probably catch up in growth to the ones started inside in no time.

Karyn that one is on my list too. Not to start them indoors anymore.

I shredded the dead branches with lots of pods near the compost pile. Well, there are so many growing, that I took like 30 or so and transplanted them behind the fence in the wild area. It;s the Datura la Fleur lol

good luck friend...which ones did you start?

The one I got from seed sown on Dec 23 is just starting to really grow. Those wintersown in February are almost as big. I'm with you on this. No more starting them indoors. I got better germination outside too.

Lucy I don't remember offhand but it was 5 or 6 varieties. I'll have to take a look a the tags. I have several volunteer seedlings but have no idea which ones they are. I lifted a few and potted them up but dug the rest under. There must have been about 50 volunteers.
