Preserving the natural characteristics of crop development, all sprouts are provided with long-term lighting, which can only be guaranteed by special phytolamps or fluorescent devices. Conventional household lamps do not provide plants with the required amount of illumination.
The second important feature of propagating early seedlings in an apartment is the installation of devices that humidify dry air due to the operation of central heating radiators. If gardeners regularly spray large houseplants, they will have to handle the seedlings delicately and, in the absence of humidifiers, place bowls of water near the containers. The liquid gradually evaporates and refreshes the air.

The tops of young shoots that have 2-3 internodes are cut off and rooted in peat. Experienced gardeners emphasize that petunia cuttings are not placed in a solution with growth stimulants.
Chinese carnation transplanted in autumn produces many shoots by the end of January, which take root a month after planting. For the culture, a substrate is prepared from equal parts of garden soil and sand.
In January, bulbous crops, intended for forcing by the beginning of spring, develop wildly - tulips, daffodils, crocuses, hyacinths, muscari and others. They have good development if large bulbs were taken, for tulips, at least 4 cm in diameter, and for hyacinths - 5 cm.
For forcing tulips, monitor the soil in the container:
- add the substrate, if the tops of the bulbs are visible, in a layer of up to 1-2 cm;
- ensure that the soil is always moderately moist;
- When sprouts appear, reduce the room temperature to 2-4 °C.
It is better to plant bulbous flowers in January 2024 according to the lunar calendar.
