Here's Part 2 of the series on germinating petunia seeds: ruclips.net/video/frZHX6Aptow/видео.html We'll plant these little seedlings in a hanging basket and watch them bloom!
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!! 😁
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.
@@monkeygraborange Buy once, cry once then laugh forever 😆 A lot of garden centers these days really don't give advice anymore cause they want you to fail and come back next year
@@blommfleuriste Garden centers hire kids. My first job at 15 was in a garden center... could I answer complex questions? Hellz no! We have the Interwebs, we need to do our own homework!
I just started collecting seeds for the first time myself and I am running around my yard looking for different types of seeds to collect. 😄 I'm definitely going to collect them from my petunias! Thank you! ☺️
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.
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.
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 ❤
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!
@@MikeKincaid79 thanks for the knowledge. Now I want to go back and watch the Conifer propagation videos. I've got a few mother trees to work with now.
I started all my petunias from seed this year and documented it on my Instagram. It wasn’t as hard as I thought it would be and I have so many plants now that I’m going to use your method of propagating by taking cuttings to make even more. 🎉🎉This year no petunias will be bought at the nursery!!! 🎉🎉
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?
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
Love your vids.....good thing that I came across this one for I recently purchased some Petunia seeds - and Snapdragon seeds which appears to be even tinier than Petunia seeds. I live in the Caribbean - St. Lucia - and most of the imported seed plants are not easily grown here....but I love to try because I enjoy both flower and vegetable gardening. I've been checking out your vids for a while now and have learnt quite a lot. Thanks....keep it coming 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
I did this method exactly with 3 year old petunia seeds I collected from a flat I planted. Its been 7 days and they are sprouting!!!!! The clear lid yogurt container really worked well! I am soo excited. Thank you!!
So I have calibrachoa and I know when I checked the plant some of the flowers where falling off and I saw inside and there were really small black specks in the middle so I don’t know if that are the seeds or just something else idk
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.
I’ve had the best flower season on my front porch and was lamenting their death when I (actually the Holy Spirit who makes you look smart when you listen) thought….seeds! Save the seeds! But do petunias have seeds?! Then I thought of Mike Kincaid, he will have knowledge! Haha!! Yes you do have a video!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge 🎼🎼🎼 PS…I really like your music from this ending better than the music from today’s video 🤗🤗🤗🤗 opinions! I’m just exercising my opinion 😄😄
I am a vigorous deadhead-er and do so ESPECIALLY with my petunias. Am I missing out on the seeds? Do I have to let the whole plant die back to get any seeds? North Florida
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 like this method also. I want all my seedlings to survive.
Hi Mike. Great video, I have re potted all my petunias have a lot more than I expected but very happy with the out come 👍 🏴 video is on my channel please check it out if you have the time thanks and stay safe 👍 🏴
It's a Viparspectra xs2000 LED grow light. I think I had it at about 150 or 200 watts when they germinated and the light was about 3 foot above it. They will germinate under a broad wattage and spectrum of lighting though.
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.
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.
Awesome. It all depends on how cold it gets in your area. We're right on the cusp here. I've had them die most years in the winter but had 1 year where they came back.
Well done..lol..I got a pillow talk hydrangeas today oh I'm so excited about her..I've been to your web page a few types trying to figure out if I can order some of your rhododendron? Do you sale them...you can IM or IG me if so. Blessings
Need some advice, I sowed my petunias seeds a couple of weeks ago and put the in a tiny greenhouse but we've had some really warm weather for March and nothing came up...too hot I'm guessing? Can they be saved by bringing them indoors or is it too late.?
I always equates white flowers with funerals until I read a book about a strange lady who had strategically planted white flowers throughout her garden and how they stood out in all their glory at night in the moonlight and the other blossoms became invisible when the sunset
What should I do with my petunias at the end of the growing season? Last year when they stopped blooming I just mowed them all down and they came back beautiful this year again
Pretty cool Mother Nature is with a little coaxing. Watching RUclips on TV thru ROKU now and showed my wife a couple of your vid's and now she's binge watching Mike Kincaid. Have you ever tried to germinate rhododendron or rose seeds?
Some people separate them but I never intended to. I have a follow up or 2 on this video and show the progression of growth and then up potting to a hanging basket, and the grow-out and blooms.
Nice 😀 my attempt last year taking seeds from petunias failed , so thank you for this video. Wonder if it works with nicotianas too 🤔 I have 50 seedlings I planted from seeds that I hopefully get a lot of flowers on
Interesting. I have a big planter that had petunias in it and based on what I see in this video, looks like I have a bunch growing from seed. Now I have to figure out how to separate.
Great video but not fair to make us wait. 😊 I put seeds from mine last year out in the planters weeks ago and got nothing.😒 So I just brought more😊. Can't wait to see how the continue video will be. Take care.
@@MikeKincaid79 Yes, now everyone that watched will be on the edge of their seats. I'm taking notes for a better next year. I got veggies and flowers OMG. 😊 I got your channel on alert so I'll be looking out for the next video. 😊 Take care.
I'm curious to see what comes about from the thousands of trailing petunia seeds I collected from this year. Being a designer brand I'm not sure they'll propagate but I sure am going to try.
Nice job Mike. I’m overjoyed....I bought two fig trees back last September. I took two cuttings from the one tree and bingo I now have four trees!! Take care and be safe. Graham🇬🇧🇬🇧
I love your channel. I deadheaded a huge amount of Marigolds and saved the seeds. I don't know what I did wrong,, but none of them came up after I planted them. Meanwhile, my friend's son just throws them on the ground and they come up like mad. What to do? Thanks
Omg I’m a Seahawk fan too! That’s how my volunteer petunias come back each year. They are really hardy. I live right on Lake Erie in pa. Come up every year in crazy places.
I collect and start petunias from seed, however this winter was the first time I've done cuttings. I started some on 3/13 and they were well rooted by 4/7. Only 25 days! Way easier to use cuttings! I used a shoplight with 2, T8 lights!
I have also been collecting petunia seeds for years. I love your little seed holder. Where did you find them? I have a ton of flower seeds I have been collecting for years. For some reason I can't stop. LOL!
Haha, it's certainly addicting! I think I found those seed holders on Amazon or Ebay. They were very cheap and I got like 1000 of them for less than $20.
This year I have to budget myself this spring and I’ve opted to start my annuals from seed. I hope all goes well, I’ve started snapdragons, petunia and impatiens.
Here's Part 2 of the series on germinating petunia seeds: ruclips.net/video/frZHX6Aptow/видео.html We'll plant these little seedlings in a hanging basket and watch them bloom!

I have petunias that overwintered and never stopped blooming. (Sunny 🌞 California)
Nice. I'll bet you have a wonderfully long growing season compared to us.
Your excitement is contagious!!!!
Happy to infect! lol
Let me know if any of those germinate in the pots below the basket.😂
I haven't seen any starts yet but I was wondering that myself. Maybe when the weather warms up.
I just started collecting seeds for the first time myself and I am running around my yard looking for different types of seeds to collect. 😄 I'm definitely going to collect them from my petunias! Thank you! ☺️
They are fun, even though you can barely see them. use white paper like I did and it makes things much easier.

Great tips, thank you Lee! Looking forward to seeing what type of blooms I get here.
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!
It will be gorgeous on your flower beds
I'm looking forward to seeing what blooms come out of them.
Buying one color of each petunia that I like. Gonna cut em up and make big baskets. Then save seeds from the crosses
There ya go!
@@MikeKincaid79 thanks for the knowledge. Now I want to go back and watch the Conifer propagation videos. I've got a few mother trees to work with now.
@@MikeKincaid79 also super paranoid about pulling out blackberry vines and roots in the garden now. Thank you very much.

LOL, yeah I think it would have been better to spread the seeds out over more cups if I was hybridizing. I've got more plans for these seedlings.
Great propagation container with the pot and lid 😀🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱 👍 love it.
Same one I used in past videos. this container is getting some good use out of it!
I'm trying to root petunias from cuttings and I have very low success. (Maybe 20%) Are petunias hard to root from cuttings?
What ratio do you use to fertilize seedling at this tender age?
1/2 tsp Miracle Gro to 1 Gallon of water.
Love your vids.....good thing that I came across this one for I recently purchased some Petunia seeds - and Snapdragon seeds which appears to be even tinier than Petunia seeds.

Where is part 2
I am a vigorous deadhead-er and do so ESPECIALLY with my petunias. Am I missing out on the seeds? Do I have to let the whole plant die back to get any seeds? North Florida
If you're deadheading then yes, you're throwing away the seeds. That's OK though, you're petunia will continue to bloom more fully by doing that.
I have so many comments. But I'll just go with really cool video go hit your head on something else.
Haha, it's permanently damaged.
@@MikeKincaid79 your head the planter or your whole high tunnel
I propagate Heteromala hydrangea trees from seed. It’s the only possible way, cuttings and layering don’t work. Seeds are basically powder!
Sounds like a challenge, LOL. I'll bet you could get them to root. Keep experimenting with it.
You’re hilarious!! Great video. Let’s see those babies bloom!
Looking forward to it!
i tried growing petunia twice last year & NO LUCK...trying it again this year frm seeds...I see a few coming up🤞🏼🙏
Good job, fingers crossed for more.

Hi Mike. Great video, I have re potted all my petunias have a lot more than I expected but very happy with the out come 👍 🏴 video is on my channel please check it out if you have the time thanks and stay safe 👍 🏴
what fertilizer do you use Mike? i planted petunia seeds from my last year harvest but they are not gowing fast enough...from Belgium
Miracle Gro
nice bro.
you keep on blowing my mind knowing that spring is just starting.
Enjoy.
This time of year gets exciting for gardeners!
This is the best and easiest way to harvest petunia seeds🙌 thank you Mike, never buying petunias from nursery again.
It's a great method to collect seeds but remember, the flowers will be random due to genetic variation.
How long do you think you can store those seeds?
At least a year, if not longer.
Hi, I am from Toronto. I want to know power of the light bulb which you are using at the time of seeds geminatation.
It's a Viparspectra xs2000 LED grow light. I think I had it at about 150 or 200 watts when they germinated and the light was about 3 foot above it. They will germinate under a broad wattage and spectrum of lighting though.
Hi, where can I buy the Little plastic seed containers from please, I'm in the UK and don't seem to put the right words in the search bar 🤔
This container is just a Chobani yogurt cup. You can find it at Safeway or probably most other grocery stores.
Hey hello Mike nice to see you
Good to see you again, Emad!
Interesting video Mike
But the question will you get original petunias ?
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.

I don't officially have a retail area yet but that's coming in the years to follow. Thanks for asking.
You get more if you pick the pods off and empty them ! 😊
Yay!!!
My petunias aren't drying out or dying. Can I collect seeds without the plant drying out indoors?
Yes, once the blooms fade.
I have petunias that have dropped seed from the pots and growing on the ground the following Year and thereafter. And I am in Canada in snow country
That's so awesome!
Need some advice, I sowed my petunias seeds a couple of weeks ago and put the in a tiny greenhouse but we've had some really warm weather for March and nothing came up...too hot I'm guessing? Can they be saved by bringing them indoors or is it too late.?
Nice baby petunias. Adiós
I always equates white flowers with funerals until I read a book about a strange lady who had strategically planted white flowers throughout her garden and how they stood out in all their glory at night in the moonlight and the other blossoms became invisible when the sunset
That's an amazing idea!
Oh my, That was enough seeds for a full flat. I mix my small seeds with sand and lightly sprinkle it across the soil
Sure is a lot of seeds in a small cup.
How do I purchase your fertilizer? I don't see an email address
I don't sell fertilizer.
Great job Mike, as always, greetings from Serbia !
I did this this year too!! Mine are only a month old but they are growing!
Sweet!
Thanks Mike! Would love to see you do this with Marigolds as well!
Great suggestion!
Super hearing indeed.
What should I do with my petunias at the end of the growing season? Last year when they stopped blooming I just mowed them all down and they came back beautiful this year again
Sounds like you found your own answer. Just mow them down and watch them come back next year, lol.
Light bulb 💡 after the head bump
What zone are you in please I’m asking so I can gauge when I should start my seeds
Zone 8b, Near Olympia, Washington
What cute, little pot to grow and I love to do for my columbines to grow like 2 months to see it out !😁😁👋👋🌿🌿🌺
Pretty cool Mother Nature is with a little coaxing. Watching RUclips on TV thru ROKU now and showed my wife a couple of your vid's and now she's binge watching Mike Kincaid. Have you ever tried to germinate rhododendron or rose seeds?
Not yet but it's only a matter of time. Thanks for you and your wife's support!
petunias take forever to grow from seed I save seeds every year you really have to start them early if you want plants to go outside that season...lol
Very true! I started these in the middle of winter, lol
You got to take advantage of the o"PETUNIA"ty .😂
🤣 I like it
Srry if someody already asked but do they have to be heirloom or nonhybrid or this to work?
Nope, not at all.
Thanks god you bumped your head 😂Your enthusiasm is contagious 😁
Hâm mộ quá
Oh my gosh, I love this.
Hello is France , how are the petunias, thank you
Doing well, I'm working on a video about them.
hi mike, do you think 2 year old seeds have a chance to germinate?
There's always a chance.
Hey, Mr Mike can we germinate outside in the sun??
Yes
Petunia's, poppies, English daisies, zinnias. All very fun to grow because they germinate so easy!
I was pretty amazed at how easy this was.
So i tried this, and all of my stock died from shock. Also what a huge pita to pull the plants apart.
Some people separate them but I never intended to. I have a follow up or 2 on this video and show the progression of growth and then up potting to a hanging basket, and the grow-out and blooms.
@@MikeKincaid79 ah, user error then. It was a disaster haha and I planted way to many for that method, if I was going to keep the ball.
Hey Mike! I couldn't find any videos on your channel about starting Gerbera Daisy's from seed ... how 'bout it?
I don't have any but I've been asked about that a couple times now. Maybe I need to get started on it.
@@MikeKincaid79 That would be much appreciated 👍 I've tried a couple of times to grow them and all that happened was swearing 🤬
Petunias test your patience for sure. Sowed January 10th @2:45 and still only looked like that @6:17 over 2 months later. Wow
Yep, they definitely test the patience virtue. LOL
That's amazing! So COOL😎
Thanks! 😄
I love your video's and I have decided that this year I will buy the petunia I love and also a fushia and I think I will be good to go for a while.
Do it Glenda! You can turn 1 plant into 50.
What kind of soil are you using , and how often do you water them i live in zone 9 , i want patunias to grow in my backyard as a ground cover
Just regular potting soil
@@MikeKincaid79 great to know ,thank you
Nice 😀 my attempt last year taking seeds from petunias failed , so thank you for this video. Wonder if it works with nicotianas too 🤔 I have 50 seedlings I planted from seeds that I hopefully get a lot of flowers on
Nice! Time will tell. Sure feels good to be headed into spring.
👍no skip , luv petunia☺️wowww that’s a lot of planting and repotting.
I've got better ideas for this one!
@@MikeKincaid79 waiting for that episode☺️
Sometimes we have to be hit in the head to learn things. 😂 cool!
😂
What kind of potting mix you used?
Just a generic potting soil that I had on hand from previous years.
Interesting. I have a big planter that had petunias in it and based on what I see in this video, looks like I have a bunch growing from seed. Now I have to figure out how to separate.
I've got some thoughts on that for the next video.
Mater Mike at it again! Awesome video and I get dibs on the petunias!!
Haha, already got your basket made.
Great video but not fair to make us wait. 😊 I put seeds from mine last year out in the planters weeks ago and got nothing.😒 So I just brought more😊. Can't wait to see how the continue video will be. Take care.

A weak solution of miracle gro after they germinated and started growing.
Mike! Over 230 K subscribers! Wow!
Crazy huh
@@MikeKincaid79 crazy good😊congrats! Your channel is growing.

Super
Great video dad!!!!! That was an awesome video. They just popped up. (: (:
Yep, they sure did!

Isn't it fun to see how fast you can multiply your plants and regain your investment! Glad you're having fun across the pond.
I love your channel. I deadheaded a huge amount of Marigolds and saved the seeds. I don't know what I did wrong,, but none of them came up after I planted them. Meanwhile, my friend's son just throws them on the ground and they come up like mad. What to do? Thanks
Thanks, Cathie, glad you enjoy it! Maybe you should bribe your friends son with a fresh batch of cookies to learn his secrets, lol.
That is sooooo coool ...I tired all last year to get some
Keep trying and don't ever give up!
What state are you in? Or growing zone?
8b
Omg I’m a Seahawk fan too! That’s how my volunteer petunias come back each year. They are really hardy. I live right on Lake Erie in pa. Come up every year in crazy places.
Go Hawks! Go Petunias! LOL
I collect and start petunias from seed, however this winter was the first time I've done cuttings. I started some on 3/13 and they were well rooted by 4/7. Only 25 days! Way easier to use cuttings! I used a shoplight with 2, T8 lights!
Awesome! You're on your way, Lori!
Great video Mike! What was that song at the end?
I don't remember the exact name but there's a link at the bottom of the description to the artists soundcloud page.
What is the best fertilizer of petunias?
Any high nitrogen
I have also been collecting petunia seeds for years. I love your little seed holder. Where did you find them? I have a ton of flower seeds I have been collecting for years. For some reason I can't stop. LOL!
Haha, it's certainly addicting! I think I found those seed holders on Amazon or Ebay. They were very cheap and I got like 1000 of them for less than $20.
Hi Mike , love your videos, so clearly explained. What fertiliser do you use for the seedlings please . Kind regards Nina
Just a weak solution of Miracle Gro.
This year I have to budget myself this spring and I’ve opted to start my annuals from seed. I hope all goes well, I’ve started snapdragons, petunia and impatiens.
Wow, you should have no shortage of color!
