Planting and Light

• Sprinkle the seeds over the soil. African daisy seeds require full sunlight to germinate, so sow the seeds in a garden with full sunlight. Place indoor flats must in a window with sunlight. If sowing indoors in flats or outdoors in the garden soil, sprinkle a light dusting of soil over the top.

Watering

• The seeds germinate in 10 to 21 days. Keep the soil moist for germination. Use a misting bottle to water the seeds and soil so as not to drown or wash away the seeds. Once the seedlings appear, use a light spray on a spray bottle or garden hose to moisten the soil.
